Tocca, GA

I have been here in Toccoa for a couple of weeks now. Joy and Sam are done with finals and today are watching some of their friends graduate. Lots of changes are in the wind for them and their family.

We have started packing up the house to move everything back to Minnesota. They are leaving some of their furniture here for friends to have and are going to take only what fits into the u-haul truck they are renting. Rick is flying down here on the 4th of June to help drive the truck back. I can hardly wait for him to get here! The longest we have been apart since we were married is one or two nights! It will be about six weeks by the time he gets here.

The weather is great today for grad. It is sunny and cool, about 65 just now at 10:20 am. Joy is off to the graduation ceremonies and I am taking care of Tabz and Elijah. Elijah is almost walking. He goes 6-7 steps between people or furniture and stands up in the middle of the room without any help. He is such a sweet baby!

Tabitha (Tabz, Tabby, Tabitha Lorrayne!) is a busy and talkative little girl with wild hair! She is fun and almost three. Keeping up with these two is a challenge for this grandma. I don't know how Joy and Sam will keep up with three once the new baby Kibwaa arrives in November! I know now why God give YOUNG people babies!

Hope you are all well. We'll talk later!
