From Mom
Did our excitement show too much? You had been gone away at school for close to 4 weeks… 4 long weeks! You were so sweet to call us along your route eastbound on highway 44! The last call we had gotten was when you were driving onto the 270 ramp… just a short 5 or so minutes away.
Little did you know, we had been waiting for that phone call! We had been looking out the window just waiting and waiting for you to arrive. I acted like I had nothing better to do than just look out the window. Dad kept coming up to the kitchen saying, ‘when’s the last you heard from her?” After the last phone call he decided to camp out now on the front yard. The funny thing… dad brought the football.
Seriously, I don’t think you were out of the football 2 seconds before dad threw you the football. Me… well I was prepared with little Shannon positioned onboard with camera attached. We couldn’t wait to see you! Our grown daughter on her first trip home from college. And if our excitement wasn’t enough, we couldn’t keep Grandma away either! As you can see, if she didn’t see you with her own two eyes, she wasn’t going to believe you were ok.
Cassie if you haven’t guessed by now, you are part of our everything! Lucky are we to have such a wonderful daughter!
