The Beginning of the End

Bob and Rob will set out early tomorrow morning and God willing arrive Sunday evening. It seems odd that our lives will make an abrupt course alteration after such an intense time here in Mississippi.

The good-byes are extra sweet, because everyone knows it will be a short time until we all say, 'so long.' Maggie and James are teasing each other lovingly, non-stop today, and Peter and William have not had a fight in a week. We drove way out into the boonies and collected Peter's little friend, Travis, from way down a windy road. After waiting for a huge load of hay to pull out of the driveway we toted him home for a swim and fun time this afternoon. "Mah Deddy needs that hay for our cows."

He's gone now but Williams family is their way to pick him up and I know what that means. They'll stay for pizza and movie night. Gotta go.
