Elianna had senior night tonight for cross country. It was kind of a conundrum because Ethan had to get back to school sometime and usually between the two of us there is one who can miss this or that thing going on or has more of an opening of negotiable schedule space. But neither one of us wanted to miss senior night and I really didn’t want to miss any more internship time at the moment.

Plus we had the auction going on last night. So Josh said Ethan would just take one of the cars and drive himself. I wouldn’t have thought of that idea but over time it grew on me. I didn’t say anything and really had nothing to do with it. At some point they’ve got to be able to do these things. I asked him to text me during his stops just to let me know where he was. We bought him one of those dashboard phone holders.

He texted right before eight to say that he’d made it and went the whole way without stops. I’d kind of figured when it came to be around six o’clock and I hadn’t heard from him. I was glad he was there and thankful to God for safe travels. We really had a great fall break time together and it was a good combination of home activities and outside busyness. Senior night went well and was another sweet time.
