Jun. 9th, 2011 11:11 pmMother's little farewell event for me last night was hardly neccessary. I've been doing this for years, after all.
Ah, but maybe it was more for Patrick's benefit. It's strange to see, after all his years begging to come along, how little he wants to leave home. It makes sense, after what he went through his first time in the field. He finally realizes it's not games and glory out there. Still, I think all the young ladies swooning over how dashing he's become would be less than impressed at his hesitance, last night.
Well, he's more than old enough to be coming, and he seemed a little more spirited this morning when I checked in on him to see if he was ready. I think he'll handle himself well enough.
Should I say farewell to my sisters again at the gates? I think we'll be off just after noon.
