. . . used to be the happiest day of the year! . . .
. . . these days ~ it's a little different . . .
. . . early this morning . . .
. . . drew was gone in a blur . . .
. . . literally . . .
. . . he couldn't even hold still
long enough for a picture . . .
. . . behold . . .
. . . this is how a boy loads up his car . . .
. . . for the ten-hour drive to his new home . . .
. . . well ~ for the next four months anyway . . .
. . . leaving empty spaces . . .
. . . and "treasures" . . .
. . . and a couple of items that didn't make the cut . . .
. . . and just like that . . .
. . . at 5:59 a.m. . . .
. . . he was going . . .
. . . going . . .
. . . gone . . .
this post makes me cry...
ReplyDeleteahhh. I feel like crying. How do you feel?
ReplyDeleteHere's the good news... you can actually TALK to him whenever you want. (not only twice a flipping year).
Good luck Drewski!
Wish he would have taken me! I would love to see Wistie. Wait.... Steph.... Road trip?
ReplyDeleteOh sad!!!
ReplyDeletehe'll be just fine! and now we have a glorious excuse for a road trip & burgers supreme!
ReplyDeleteWish BYU and the University of Washington were both in Mesa. I hate goodbyes. Mine was a couple of weeks ago. Condolences. That's what you get for being a great mom and teaching your kids independence! :-)
ReplyDeleteGLAD HE HAS HIS SUNS BLANKIE ALONG....BUT....WHAT WILL THE ROOMMATES SAY ABOUT THE PINK HANGERS?
ReplyDeletei agree...i finished school & graduated from byu if it had been in mesa! why does idaho get to have one? we need one here!
ReplyDeletei forgot to add "probably could have" in between "i" and "finished". i promise i have proper grammar. got sidetracked by the taggster mid-sentence.
ReplyDeleteholy cow, i can't believe drew already left! He'll have such a fun time though and 4 months will fly by!
ReplyDeleteThis gave me a lump in my throat.... more for Jessalyn I think! I feel bad because I get to see Drew tomorrow as I head up there to help Kalie move into her apartment. I better check my Suitcase.... I am sure Jess is going to try and squuueeze in! You are the cutest blogger!
