goodbyes are hard

I am tired of crying. I am not normally an emotional person but the fact that I am leaving soon really struck me this morning. It was Senior Sunday, when we honor the graduating seniors and they are apart of worship. I basically cried for 2 hours this morning. I think it freaked a lot of people out because I don't usually cry in public.

I feel the tidal wave of emotion coming. I don't really like being that out of control... but one of these days I am just going to be standing somewhere sobbing. Something fun to look forward to.

Carrie...remember, like you said Thursday night, crying and being emotional is a part of closure. It's not fun to be "out of control" and not comfortable to cry in public (well, I think it is for Ellers, but not most people) :-). Know that it's OK and that we/I would be a little hurt if you DIDN'T cry some! It shows how much you love us here and that you'll miss us. Know too that you will be deeply missed here. I am not looking forward to the reality of that setting in for me this fall. You may get sick of me calling and emailing b/c I'll be in Carrie withdrawal!! I love you!!
