the short version....



Every trip we make to Louisiana is an emotional roller coaster for me. I know your saying GEEZ woman its been 3 years since you've been gone, GET OVER IT ALREADY!!
I don't think I will ever get over the feeling in my stomach I get every time I hug my daddy good bye. I try so hard to fight back my tears that I end up with a head ache. At some point along the road back home to Georgia (Georgia is my home and I love it) I start to get a little emotional. It used to start right when I would leave my parents drive way. Every time we leave the tears take longer to come. This time my ugly cry didn't start until Alabama. It goes, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia.
HEY 2 STATES IN IS PRETTY GOOD!!

Beautiful!

I remember that feeling very well. I did the same thing when my parents would visit me. Something about your daddy's hug that can get to ya! Hang in there. I hope that you are all hooked up with technology--cell phones with lots of minutes, web cams, instant messaging, and email. That must make it a heck of a lot easier.

Love the pictures.
