We are halfway through our wonderful vacation. I'm torn between looking forward to the next three days, and dreading leaving in three days! Don't ask me if I'm a glass half empty of half full kind of person, because I can't tell you. I'm both, on a pretty equal basis. I drank half the juice, but I have half of it left to drink! I'm trying not to get that "Sunday night" feeling until we have to pack up on Saturday night.
We are having a blast! We celebrated Lofton's 3rd birthday last night with our whole family and Lofton's God-parents from Charlotte, NC and his cousins in their family. It was a load of kids, and you can never be around too many kids! I guess that's the teacher in me, but it keeps me young. In 19 days, I will be celebrating a big birthday.....25!! Just kidding, I'll be 40 this year. We've been coming to Hilton Head for twenty years. I cannot believe I have lived so long, and I sure don't feel 39 years and 346 days old. It's been so great to just have family dinners each night. We all take turns cooking. Tomorrow night is the big night out: Shannon Tanner at Shelter Cove and dinner at Fudrucker's. Shannon Tanner is a tradition from my girls' childhood, and somehow, within the last 5 years, Fudrucker's has become a tradition. Gigi and Papa get a night off.
I heard from the "We Are Home" people who are offering grants and loans from the city of Nashville. They're coming by to inspect the damage next Friday. I have my fingers crossed that they will help fill the gap that is left after the FEMA money. Please let the city of Nashville follow through on this!!!
