A Week Sans Katie

Since I forgot to download the pictures from the camera before I sent it with Katie, I won't be posting this week. Yes, our little Katie left yesterday morning for a week-long trip to Nanbeihu, which is about two hours south of here. Both the junior and the senior school kids are away. Sarah and Sydney had a hard time containing themselves this morning when they got on the bus because with the older kids gone they have the run of the school and back seats on the bus.
Katie was a bit nervous the night before she left, waking up a couple of times crying. I was quite fearful that we'd have a long and painful goodbye. I was pleasantly surprised when we arrived and she teamed up with her "roomies". I was a mere afterthought, cramping her style. I asked if I could give her a quick peck on the cheek before being dismissed. She obliged but didn't give me a second glance as I left. I know I should be happy, but she could have spared one dramatic tear for her mother's sake.
Katie promised to take lots of pictures. She's even agreed to be a guest blogger and write all about her trip. Can't wait!
