If Eli looks despondent in this picture, it's because he is. Stephen officially became a Mountaineer on Friday and this was after our "Farewell and Godspeed" party the night before. I'm so proud of Stephen and even though I (and Eli) will miss him terribly, I also look forward to hearing all of his stories--hopefully tame, modest stories--of this particular "season" of his life.
Little man and I decided at the last minute to drive to Boone on Friday to help Stephen move in... or something like that. Eli wasn't much help and consequently, neither was I. But we did get to see the campus and his dorm room, eat a delicious lunch at a hole-in-the-wall Boone restaurant, and say our final goodbyes. How in the world will I do this with my own children?
