Andrew and Robert arrived home about 6:00 last evening, and Catherine and Thomas arrived home nearly seven hours later. It was so fabulous having everyone under the same roof, and I was so grateful. I had decided weeks ago that no one was going to swim practice this morning and we would sleep in.
Andrew and Robert were able to accomplish a great deal while at Andrew's parents. My mother-in-law became very emotional when it was time for them to leave since Robert leaves for the Navy in three weeks. There is part of her that is convinced Robert will never see his grandfather again. I'm glad I wasn't there to see her be so emotional.
Catherine and Thomas had a an amazing experience in Houston for their church trip. I loved hearing their stories and I am more grateful than I can put into words that they were able to make this trip. The next ELCA youth gathering is in three years in Minneapolis, and while Catherine will be too old, Thomas is already making plans to attend.
This summer continues to fly by!
