Families are the compass that guide us. They are the inspiration to reach great heights, and our comfort when we occasionally falter. -- Brad Henry

1st Apartment

Our oldest hit a new milestone in her life, her own apartment.  What was supposed to be a shared basement ended up being private living quarters.  Her roommate decided not to return to the college this fall.


It is a uniqe experience visiting your child in HER apartment.  Instead of feeling 'old' like I expected, I felt proud. I couldn't help but marvel at the young adult she had become.  


Her place was neat & tidy, with a little furniture here & there to make it feel at home.  


It's also a free hotel now whenever I need a place to stay in Columbia.  The bed may not be as soft, or the shower as spacious, but the company is worth it!
