January 12

Abby flew back to Wheaton today. We all piled into the Explorer to drop her off at the airport, where hugs were exchanged and then off she went to begin the second semester of her Junior year.

It was wonderful having her here for the past three-plus weeks. We shopped and ate foods of her choosing and played games and watched terrible Lifetime movies and went for walks (I think... she did a lot of jogging and I know I went outside with her at least one time). 

I know she misses us when she's at school (and we miss her, too!) but I'm very proud of how much she's grown over the past few years. And I'm very excited to see what God has in store for her this Spring. Go get it, Girl!
