Leaving the Nest - Part II

The tears fell down my cheeks that Sunday morning, despite the great efforts I made to smile and pretend they weren't there. After giving me many hugs and smiles and words of encouragement, my baby was leaving church, going home to pick up his suitcase, and get on the road. He was very excited!

I got a call from Greg just over an hour later to tell me that the car had overheated (hmmm... never happened before...) and Lewis was on his way back home. Fortunately Lewis was only an hour north of Wichita and not six hours into the trip, stranded on the western plains! Praise God for His perfect timing!

After getting the Volvo's thermostat replaced, Lewis is planning on repeating this adventure in two weeks...two weeks more for me to prepare for his leaving the nest.
