I jumped up before 8 this morning and showered, ready to meet my pal Chrisi for breakfast and a little thrift store shopping. I was so excited, as I haven't seen her in....well, I can't remember when.We had a nice breakfast and caught up on a lot of things, but as usual, time ran out for us too quickly. My hubby and Cain also kept calling me in the two hours that I was gone, so that took some time away, too. Anyway, I had such a good time seeing her and we promised to see one another soon. (Love you, Lou Who, sorry about the rushing off!)
When I got home, I picked Brooke up and we headed off to do a bit of shopping for Cain before we leave for Kentucky tomorrow. I had ordered him a comforter set online, but I found out yesterday that it won't be here until around the 18th of the month. I'll just have to take it back. I bought the same one that he wanted today (it was originally out of stock in the store). We got him several things that he needs, but he needs a lot of stuff.
I've had a sick knot in my stomach all day. I'm trying to remain positive. Obviously, I know this is a good thing, and we are so blessed. How wonderful is it that Cain received an athletic scholarship and we barely have to pay a dime for anything. SO blessed! I am trying to focus on that, but this sick feeling is starting to win out. At least my tears are in private.
He has been very clingy today, too, more than usual. He's very affectionate...he always has been, but he's been here for most of the day (which is rare) and has been right beside me all day. If I'm doing something in another room he comes and kisses me on the head, or aggravates me. Ok, this isn't helping.
Please, please pray for me and Marshall as we venture into this new part of our lives. I have been a mother since I was 17 (I'm 39 now). Marshall has been a father since he was 19 (he'll be 42 on Aug. 17). This is going to be such an adjustment and I just hope everyone remembers us in their prayers.
Ok, the Drama Queen is moving in. ;) Have a good night.

Think of those fun football games this fall!
I know it's going to be difficult. I've been through it myself. Just cry and get it out. When we took Karri (the younger daughter) off to school, I cried most of the way back. I came home and cried. I cried for several days. It will get better. There is no magic way to get through this, but you will get through it. Just remember...they will be coming back. You will be hearing from them. You will be seeing them.
