My neighbor and best friend has had her grandchildren here for a month while their parents are in transition to new jobs in Colorado. I have known these kids since they were born. They have always lived less than 3 hours away, so they have grown up spent considerable time here in the summers. I consider them family, and having them here for the past month has been a joy. You can see by the pics that we have had a little strumming time together.
But sadly, the time has come to say goodbye. Last night we had our "last campfire", and about an hour ago, there was a little knock on my door. "We're leaving now for Colorado." At least my tears waited until they were walking away towards their cabin.
Sure, they'll be back, but not until next summer, and not for this length of time (for which their Grandma is thankful, I think). So today, I just wanted to let it out. Thanks for listening.
