i'm not normally up this early on a saturday morning. janelle is going on her world changers mission trip this morning and we have to have her at the church by 8:30. we're having breakfast at waffle house before she leaves.
we used to go to the waffle house a lot when she was younger and i took her to school. that was kind of our friday morning routine, especially payday fridays. i miss those mornings now that she's older and driving herself to school. it was nice just sitting there quietly enjoying our time together. janelle and i are alike in that we don't really like to talk much first thing in the mornings. we're ok with the silence between us. i think that's one of the reasons we get aggravated with mom and dad in the mornings sometimes. they get up all chatty and we don't want to be bothered until the sleepy haze evaporates from our eyes.
it was a whirlwind day yesterday picking janelle up from business week. thankfully her roommate's parents were helping her carry her luggage downstairs when i got to the dorm. i was not looking forward to climbing the stairs with my knee hurting like it has been. (for some reason it's been hurting more this week!)
we had the awards/graduation ceremony. janelle was recognized for being nominated for the ron mcnair scholarship competition. i was proud that she was in the running for it. she had a really good, productive week. she talked about it up until we were about 20 miles from home and then she decided to take a quick nap...lol. i was surprised b/c she usually is asleep about 10 minutes on the road. that's her thing...sleeping in the car. i'd do it too if i didn't have to drive....lol. i know i used to sleep in the back seat when we went on the family trips. it made the time go by quickly.
well, i'm going to go now. i need to finish getting ready.
kisses....
