It’s over
November 24, 2007
I’m sad to see this week ending and Thanksgiving gone. I’m sad to see Heather and Spencer leave. Timmy came to me and announced their departure with a deep melancholy. My poem for today is a short goodbye:
The time went so quickly, and now it has flown,
Your leaving tomorrow and driving back home,
I’m so glad you came here, it’s been lots of fun,
I pray your trip away is a good and safe one.
Our lives seem so short now, so quickly we change,
but after this visit I still feel the same,
We know you and love you and are proud of you too,
But goodbyes always come and we will miss you.
We ate wonderfully. We had lots of fun talks and good times. And we’re all still alive. Goodbye Heath and Spence, thanks so much for coming.

Your poem really gets to the heart of it, Doug. It’s a good thing families are forever. Sounds like Timmy had a great time despite the 9 girl to 3 boy ratio. Tell him (and the rest of the family) we love him (them).
