We're Off To See...

You Might Need a Tissue...

I survived 3 weeks of summer camp once again. I gotta tell you people, I'm stinkin exhausted. This summer has been a whirlwind and I can't believe it is already August. In about a month, we'll have our Fall Kick-Off. Yikes! How does this always happen to me?

On a separate note, I went to Centralia for the weekend to see my family. My brother was in town with his family, so we had a big time playing with the kiddos. Avery is so much fun...she just talks up a storm and sings everything! I love hearing her sweet little voice from another room saying,"Where Kar-Kar go?" Melt my heart. And Grayson...don't get me started. That chub-a-roo is such a doll baby. Full of smiles and giggles for anyone who is watching.

It was a good fun weekend, but I found myself feeling strangely sad. Something was missing. Someone was missing. Someone who loved a house full of family...someone who LOVED those babies...someone who would have cooked up a storm and laughed at the mess. I drove to the cemetary one the way out of town and had a good long cry. Will it always be this hard? Will I always miss her this much?

I was watching Grayson yesterday afternoon while Kent and Christa ran to the store. He woke up from his nap in a grumpy mood and absolutely could NOT be consoled by me...not by Amy...not by PawPaw...not anyone. He wanted his mommy and that's all there was to it. I know exactly how you feel little guy. I know exactly how you feel.

Oh, my sweet friend...I think your subject line should read, "You WILL Need a Tissue."

Tears stream down my face right now and I wish for nothing more than to be near you and give you a great big hug.

You should watch out, come November/December, because I will have to make up for lost time!
