she's off

We spent the weekend in a flurry of getting ready, squeezed between derby car making, scrub monogramming, laundry doing, church meetings, and what not.  We copied documents, read security reports, printed out emergency numbers and decided between bringing black boots and brown boots. 

Finally everything was ready and J was out the door.  Lu and I drove her to the airport.  On the way we stopped for one last lunch at Salsas.  Yummy!
After we got her on the plane I got to enjoy a two hour drive home with this cheerful camper asking over and over again "why does she have to go?", "why can't they (her big sisters) live here and use your money?", "why?, why?, why?"

    That little girl looks soo sad.

    I'm sure there were moments you were crying with her.

    I have a nephew serving a mission in Moldova. Of course he loves it!

  3. Little Lu looks so sad. It is hard.

    But I'm glad Jenna is excited. Hope it's a wonderful experience.
