Back to School

After a 4 week break, Christmas, skiing, Student Mobilization Christmas conference and a birthday, Ryan had to go back to school today. We all went to Fayetteville on Saturday and took in a Razorback basketball game. He had media guide pictures on Sunday afternoon and catching up with friends. Last night around 9:00 he called and was having a hard time. The boy loves his family and homesickness had hit. You know, he's 19 years old and he loves his family. I told him it was what we really wanted for him, to love his family and to have wonderful thoughts of home. It's fairly odd that a 19 year old would miss his family, but even more so that he would miss our boring home with the same meals, the same routines and all his sisters. We wouldn't want it any other way.

Saw this today...and wish I had been reminded of it when my big three were my little three and the days were so long...
