Kristen is off to London for 10 days!
I took her and Anna to the airport yesterday for their 2:45 pm flight and they landed there at 3:00 am our time. Anna has a global phone so she contacts her mom who then calls me. They are safely there.
I made it outside and into the jeep before the tears came. I cried all the way to a Krispy Kreme store where I drowned by sorrow in a chocolate covered, creme filled donut and a big glass of milk. I don't know why I felt the need for that sugary treat but it made me feel better. I think the boy taking my order thought I had the swine flu since I was sniffling, coughing and my eyes were red. He kept his gloves on the whole time and stood back as far as his arms would reach.
I don't see or hear from K everyday but just knowing that she is on the other side of the ocean is a lonesome feeling. I am praying for the Holy Spirit to guide her and give her wisdom to make good decisions. She ain't in NC any more! My country girl has hit the big time!
Leah has been traveling quite a bit in the last few years and I am very grateful everytime she gets back home. I am so proud of both of them but my hair is getting gray enough on it's on without the added stress.
Here are some pictures of my world traveler:

One last pic then I have to go Mom!
Have fun and be safe.
