Where'd She Go?

Kaylee has been gone for almost 6 weeks now and the dogs are starting to wonder if she is coming home. They go into her room and sit in the middle of the floor and stare. They have sniffed her bed and looked for her. They will be so happy when she comes home next weekend.

She has had a blast. She has traveled more in the last 6 weeks than she's ever had. She's been to the country in Illinois, been stung by 2 bees, has 13 mosquitos, skinned her back on the concrete wall in the basement, twisted her ankle, dealt with a sty in her eye, homesick (only once or twice), dogs, cats, thunderstorms, traveled to SC, seen the mountains in Tenn., stayed in Indiana, and probably more than I'll ever know.

So next weekend Jamie, Sarah and I will travel to Joplin to meet mom & Jerry half way. Then we'll bring her home. I'm sure to much fanfare and spoiling and love from her grandparents & aunts and uncles that have missed her. Of course, mommy and daddy have missed her greatly too. We have enjoyed the quiet but would love to have her home.
