On Missing Chickie

When she is here, I sometimes can't wait for her to be gone. Lets face it, she can talk a blue streak about nothing for hours on end seemingly without taking a breath. But, she's been gone for the past 2 days and I can not wait for her to get home. Even the 4-legged beast is missing her. I mentioned "sissy" last night and his head popped up and he started looking at the back door then back at me as if to ask "Mom, when is she coming home?" He has gone into her room several times looking for her. I miss having her mother me (yes, I am still sick and not really knowing how I am going to make it through school tomorrow). I missed going out with her today even though I probably couldn't have gone anyway.
I really am anxious to hear about how her first retreat went. I want so much for her to have a close group of christian girl friends with whom she can share her faith. I think this is vital for her spiritual growth. There is so much out there that can cause her to go down the wrong path. A solid foundation and group to which she is accountable will go a long way to keep her on the right path.
