There is such magic in youth. Who else can you make funny clown faces with in a parking lot? I will miss my babies. But I remember how special it was when my cousin from Chicago came to WV for a visit. She was royalty! We anticipated her visit months in advance. And even though the visit went way too fast, we bonded over that week or two and I know how special it was for my grandma to have her “Trinket” there. My babies will come see me next summer and my daughter will leave them with me for awhile. We will camp and drive back cross country and I’ll bring them back to Denver. In the meantime, we’ll have plenty of FaceTime dates. And maybe we ‘ll wear clown noses!
