“…Do you think she’s talented, deeply and importantly talented?”
by chuckofish
Daughter #2 breezed into town last Tuesday and we had a wonderful time together. We shopped “small” in Kirkwood. We tried a trendy new restaurant in a converted gas station in a hipster south STL neighborhood. The food was amazing.
We caught up with her old buddy who came over for dinner. (Daughter #2 cooked.)
Edwina works for Anheuser-Busch–have Bud will travel.
We over-ate at the boy’s house with his in-laws on Thanksgiving and then watched Planes, Trains and Automobiles together. This picture really says it all.
We watched one of our favorite movies together. Breakfast at Tiffany’s. Perfect.
And then it was time for her to return to Maryland.
Will I ever learn to take these farewells in stride? I doubt it.








“Do you think she’s handsomely paid?”
Amusingly and superficially talented, yes. But deeply and importantly, no.
Well Susie will be home again in less than three weeks!
I know–Christmas is scarily right around the corner!
It was such a great visit! But the Willow .gif–SO SAD!! Home in 2 weeks and 1 day–you’ll make it 🙂 XO
I am keeping a stiff upper lip.
I love the pictures on Wheeler’s and Lauren’s wall! And I know how you feel…but at least we have Christmas to look forward to (although I’m not even close to being ready).
Wheeler has the pictures and Lauren has the can-do attitude about hanging them.
It takes some doing, but we always get our acts together for Xmas!
