Powell Weekending!!!

Friday night there was a knock at the door...Blake made Lucy go answer it with him....and there was POWELL!!

Blake, Bennett and Toby knew he was coming home for the weekend, but Lucy and I were SO surprised!  I had been really missing him this last week (well...every week!!), but I really just needed to hug him...so for almost 48 hours, I did just that!!  




Powell seemed "different"...he has always been mature, responsible, funny...but coming home this weekend he REALLY seemed so "grown up" , a kind, funny, smart, engaging, handsome MAN!!

ahhh...I "filled up" as much as I could, but it was hard to see him go :( , but I love that he is having the time of his life and doing great in school!
That's my Boy Guy!!!!

  3. Oh my -- that is so sweet! Amazing how much he's grown in only a few weeks! Am sure you and Lucy (and the whole family) were floating on air having him with you all.

  8. What a sweet surprise!

    This post made me tear up...it's hard to watch them pull out of the driveway...EVERY. TIME.

    Makes it a lil easier knowing they love it though!

    Hang in there Momma...we're gonna make it! :)
