...that last post was really heavy. I really didn't know it was going that direction when I started out.
...so to make up for all that serious stuff I'm going to blog about something fun and awesome.
...like this...
I know I've mentioned it before, but I was just thinking how lucky I am that Lala has Caleb for her eternal companion.
Letting Lauren leave home and go off to that really scary place of Utah valley was difficult. She has always been a home girl. She loves being home. She loves being with family...and the family loves having her with them. That was really wonderful when she was growing up, because I rarely had to call her and say it was time to come home, because she was so excited to be home with the family.
...so when she moved away, I cried...a lot...because I missed her...and because I worried about my little Lauren.
...at least I worried until I met Caleb and then, all of a sudden, I just knew she wasn't alone any more. Even before their relationship became serious, I somehow knew that he was watching out for her. I can't put into words how comforted I was by his presence in her life. I can never tell him how grateful I am for his kindness and attention to our littlest angel.
...this week is Caleb's birthday. This week I am thankful for him and I am thankful for his mom, who taught him to be a gentleman and to be a gentle man.
I love him for loving my Lauren.
