The females in our house were beginning to get a little anxious about having to wait until Thanksgiving to see the boy. So when we heard that his Honors class was cancelled today we loaded up to meet him Wichita Falls. Abigail baked cookies while Frankie and I ran to pick up Blue Bell ice cream and some dry ice.
Wichita Falls isn't exactly a mid-point between Plano and Lubbock but it is one of the few larger towns, not too far out of the way that offers plenty of dining choices. It also offers a laundromat where I could mother him and we could sit around and listen to Caleb's latest adventures.
We were able to spend three or four hours together and then sent him back to school with clean laundry, a full stomach and plenty of Blue Bell to hold him over until Thanksgiving!
Hear, my son, your father's instruction,
and forsake not your mother's teaching,
9
for they are a graceful garland for your head
and pendants for your neck.
Proverbs 1:8-9
