the fourth of july was great.

Its always great to see family, her family can always make her smile. They always compliment her and take interest in what she has to say. They make her laugh with their alcohol induced comments of actions. Its crazy how such an incredibly mixed group of people can get along so well, and so easily. It was a nice break from her life of boxes, her house now only full of white walls....

tonight:
her first night in her new "home"
her last sleep over with tia
her first night as an "adult"
another night of many tears

tomorrow:
the last time she'll see her mom
goodbyes
the last time she'll fight with lauren
goodbyes
the last time she'll see tia wag that tail
goodbyes

***NOT the last time, but the last time for a while...long enough in any case***

so yes she's scared, and sad, and mad....but shes ready, as ready as she will ever be.

She just doesn't like goodbyes...
