Also both live out of state which causes me to worry more. Son is in Florida and daughter is in Illinois. And we are here in California. I sure miss them tons though. Wish they were closer for family get togethers and such. I don't know if I will ever get used to that. Just yesterday on my way home from work, I was thinking about that and nearly started bawling because I miss them so much. We currently can't afford to travel to see them and they can't afford to travel to see us. So we are stuck for the time being.Neabearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09311437927263063301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-59803408899579453702009-06-13T20:35:16.523-05:002009-06-13T20:35:16.523-05:00She is braver than I am.

That was before everyone and his dog had a cell phone, and I would not be able to hear anything from him until he got to school safely.<br /><br />Fast forward to 1998 and 2000 when the two younger boys left for Arkansas with cell phones in hand. I still worried about them. Sometimes I would try to call while they were on the way, and they wouldn't answer. Then I'd worry even more.<br /><br />Bottom line is that you never stop worrying about them. Whenever I take a trip, I still have to call my mother to tell her I arrived home safely.KBeauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02749986838867446338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-80238939239188612632009-06-13T12:24:25.692-05:002009-06-13T12:24:25.692-05:00My daughter went on a float trip this past week wi...My daughter went on a float trip this past week with a group from her college.
