Thank You, Ikea.

Katherine and I took a trip to Ikea this morning and guess what happened? We both started crying in the middle of the store!! Sorry, Kath, hope you dont mind me telling this!!

These days Im an emotional wreck. Kath leaves in less than a week and I dont feel ready to let go of her! I cant imagine how my parents feel! So as we're walking through the store we're talking about the final details of her leaving and what time on Sunday and her saying goodbye to her boyfriend and I started to tear up. I told her "Well, I can barely hold it together now, I dont know how Im going to be when you leave!!" and then I started bawling, we stopped and hugged right there in Ikea, both crying away like 2 little girls. 2 minutes later (and a fter a few looks!!) we pulled ourselves together and continued on! But seriously, I dont know how Im going to be next week or this weekend!

We're having our last family dinner before she leaves one evening this week and thats going to be difficult too. I know in a month having her gone will be "normal" but its still going to be hard. Her and I have become really close over the summer, we've spent alot of time together... and thankfull her and James have been awesome about babysitting!  What a blessing she is... our little dolly!

Thank you, Ikea for a great experience today.
