Day 66 Joy in a phone call.

My daughter, who is eleven years old, left at 8 AM Saturday morning for her first trip away from home for a week.  She was so excited to go with her good friend and their family, up north to a cottage by the lake.  I was excited for her to have the opportunity, but as my son pointed out, she's NEVER been away that long!  I will miss her too much!  Well, we have made it three days now and we excitedly received our first call from her.  She sounded a bit tired, but happy, having went tubing behind a speedboat for the first time...having kayaks and paddles boats and Bingo at night to play.  She was having a great time, which is all I needed to hear.  Joy today, among other things, was hearing her voice again in that call.
