Chloe’s been asking to send pictures of Miles everyday… so here’s what i have been sending her…

It’s been so hard not having my girl with me every day. I miss seeing her sweet face, hearing her voice, watching her eat, and catching the sound of her laughter drifting from her room while she talks with her friends. I miss her coming up the stairs with a smile, saying, “Hi, Mom,” before wrapping me in a hug. I miss her chasing Miles around just to tickle his paws, chatting with her brother about his day, or asking me if she can borrow the Genesis.

I’m learning, slowly, how to let her go… how to be excited and happy for her as she steps into this new season. But my heart still misses the countless little moments we shared all those years, and I carry them with me every day.

A hearty breakfast before moving in!

We stopped by D.C. area to see my cousin’s family with a new born! on our way to college drop off.

Happy birthday David! Thank you for coming to see us before Chloe goes off to college!
