Going to get our girl





Heading north tomorrow to pack up our daughter from her sophomore year of college, store her belongings and drive her home. Despite my fairly intense work commitments this week, we have a season-long Survivor marathon planned for Thursday, the two of us on the couch in blankets. It's become our thing when she gets home from a semester. I can hardly wait. Her last exam is tomorrow, and then she will officially be a junior! Not to sound like a stuck record, but her college career is moving at warp speed. She'll be home for two-and-a-half weeks before she takes off for her summer internship in Chicago. Excited to see her!

  2. Wait. No. Are we sophomore year already? Why did I think this was still freshman year? Oh Lord. Can't take it. Time, please, slow down!

  4. What a joy to catch up with you and read about your loving your writing and about your children and to see their pix and you in your beautiful Mother's Day glory with your boy. Thank you. I've been smiling the whole while here.
