Time Flies

It's been a while since my last blog but in my defense I have been crazy busy. I have dropped my daughter off at college, got her settled in and spent some much needed time with family and friends. It is so hard to believe this journey will begin officially in 6 days. I am excited, scared, nervous and ready! Although leaving my daughter was the hardest thing I have ever had to do, it was so wonderful to see how grown up and responsible she has become. I was so proud of how well she handled all of this change that came about this summer. She is going to be an amazing Geologist or Geophysicist. (I am still not sure which she has decided on.) I am so glad she will have all the family and friends and of course her boyfriend to keep her safe and happy. I am convienced she is going to do great. Have you heard of Skype? It is an amazing thing. I am so grateful to whom ever created this!! Talking on the phone is great but if you can see them and see a piece of home it can make all the difference in the world. While Brian was in India sometimes we would just watch TV together. Now that is amazing! I always felt close to him and I am looking forward to being able to skype with my daughter, family and friends. This alone will keep me sane :). Brian and I met at the airport Saturday and I can not tell you how excited I was when I saw him walk through the door at the airport. I felt like a kid waiting to get out of bed on Christmas morning! It felt so good just to hug him! He is at work this week but it has been so nice waking up with him, making him breakfast, drinking coffee with him and well just being a wife again. I am enjoying having my bestfriend with me physically. We talk to Heather often and I love getting a text saying goodnight mom, I love you! It definately puts me at peace for the night. I have had alot of changes this summer and I feel like they are going to help us as a family grow into an even stronger family. I can't wait to share my adventure with my friends and family. The pictures I will be able to take alone put a smile on my face. I can not wait to finally take some classes in photography. I have talked about this for so many years now. I just want to jump in with both feet! I am ready to grow. I want to explore everything. This is going to be a great adventure! I hope my friends and family will have the opportunity to come visit and take part in our journey and make it that much more special. So hold on everyone, it's going to be a great ride!!!
