She's Home

We got our girl back bright and early this morning. Heritage Halls was humming with activity. All the kids in front of their halls--luggage and pillows and blankets ready to load up when their responsible adult arrived to take them home with a weeks full of memories. They were hugging all their new friends good-bye. Tired, but happy.

She settled in on the great room couch to read Harry Potter. She is almost through the series. She wants to finish before we go see the movie this next week. All of a sudden, I could hear her soft breathing. She is OUT! She told us Thursday was her favorite day if she had to pick one. She is tired, happy, a bit cranky, more tan, has blisters on her feet from her new silver flats, and has a lot of new information and feelings to process from all the workshops.

We of course had to stop at Beto's. They call it Rancherito now, but we still call it Beto's. Breakfast Burritos from there are the match to A's Breakfast Burritos at home.

Darla drove down with us and was beside herself to see The Miss. She is perched on her cabin blanket on the big brown bean bag right next to Christine on the couch keeping vigil by her side. Loyalty. And Love.
