Good-bye, Alex!
Have you noticed how
many of my posts
are about
saying
Good-bye?
That is
the life
of a
Mother...
...with 4 children
in their
launching years..
...bouncing
like a rubber ball
between
home...
...and their
new lives...
...between
adventure...
...and the
safety net
of home.
But for now,
it's good-bye
to Alex.
Her friend,
Nicole,
drives down
from Minnesota...

| Random kitty picture |
...for a
brief
visit.
Nicole
and Al
worked together
on an organic farm
summer of '09.
Now
they offer
to fix dinner...
- I'll help!
- ....ummm...
that's okay, Mom.
You can
take pictures.
OK!
Red
pepper...
Olive oil...
Some
kind
of herbs...
Peeling
sweet
potatoes....
...and
dicing...
- Kitty,
do you
like
sweet potatoes?
Tom
looks
at his new
cookbook
for ideas...
He makes
fish
and his
famous
feta cheese salad.
A wonderful
meal
together.
TJ
blows
out the candles.
Quick, Al!
Pack
your
bags!
Kitty
hides
in his box.
He doesn't want
to be packed!
Meanwhile
KC Skypes in
from Egypt.
(This is Jan 10, btw).
to the
airport!
Good-bye...!
Good-bye...!
Fly away!
