Grandma French and Cousin Grace came to town for a little vacation on Wednesday the 3rd and stayed until Sunday. We had a ton of fun. And yes it took me the entire Sunday afternoon and evening to stop having bouts of tears after they left. I have finally come to the conclusion that it is not easier to say goodbye to my mom the longer I live away from her. So for all my friends here when my mom leaves town you might want to keep your distancefor the first 24 or if you dare... bring a few boxes of kleenex.
