I don't treat your opinion lightly, that's for sure. <BR/><BR/>The last one to leave the nest at our house is bittersweet. We are excited for her and ready for her to make her mark on the world yet we are a bit anxious that we have taught her enough, counseled enough, and enjoyed her enough here in our nest. <BR/><BR/>It may be awhile til I read de los Santos' next book, but it will be a delicacy when I do. Her writing was truly a treat! Thanks again! <BR/><BR/>Susan - We indeed loved this weekend. I know that it will be a 100 and bazillion before long so we are reveling in it now. It's weird that the AC didn't click on for three whole days and that we are sleeping with the windows open all weekend. <BR/><BR/>When our son was 2 1/2 someone took him from SeaWorld and he was missing for more than half the day. We were lucky enough to get him back as they closed down the whole park, but years later we were concerned that he may have been molested during that time. It was a horrible thing and I can remember feeling like there was a black cloud over me for weeks. I still am a nutcase on watching the children I am with whenever I go somewhere!!<BR/><BR/>Keep up your reviews as well, it's fun to see what you have on your plate.

I'm all for year-round school :) Congratulations to your daughter - I wondered what schools would do for such a rainy graduation day. Anyway, I hope you enjoy your (much needed, I'm sure) vacation.<BR/><BR/>Are you loving this weather or hating it? I ADORE it.<BR/><BR/>Glad you enjoyed Love Walked In. I loved all the references to Cary Grant - my favorite classic movie star. The passage you quoted was a good description of losing a kid - I've been there, too, and there's no scarier experience for a mother.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05344704891037668456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3860062436324540164.post-3535155784861352572008-05-25T07:29:00.000-07:002008-05-25T07:29:00.000-07:00Congratulations on your daughter's graduation. It'...Congratulations on your daughter's graduation. It's been 6 years since mine graduated from high school, but I sure do remember those proud moments (as I did when she graduated from college). <BR/><BR/>Thanks for the mention of my book review. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the book as much as I did. Isn't she a fabulous writer?! I do hope she writes more about Cornelia and the rest of the cast of characters. Do read Belong to Me, if you get a chance. It's another winner.Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.com
