So, this is it. Jacob, my oldest, is going to South Dakota for a month tomorrow. He is going to help some elderly cousins of mine on their sheep ranch.
He will have a great time and learn a lot and be able to help out but man, I don't want him to go! I will miss him so much! I know it will be good for him and I remember spending the summer with my grandmother at that age in another state but I hate to see him go.
He is my right hand man. He is so much fun. (most of the time) and I am having a hard time letting go. Bry thinks it will be really good for him and I feel outnumbered! Jake is really excited to go but I worry. What if something happened to him while he was gone! I would never forgive myself for letting him go!
I'll keep you posted on how it's going but today, I already miss him.

You are so beautiful, ya know that Melissa. Heart, soul, and body-
What an amazing picture. I love the one I took of you and Jake at Willow Park that summer-
You both are lovely.
He'll be fine, and if something happens, I'll drive out there with you to get him.
It's hard to let em go, even for brief times.
*smooch!*
That would be hard. Good luck to both of you.
