DD away for four days

Fri, 02-09-2007 - 1:15pm
DD is in Arlington VA for a four day Social Action Weekend - it ends on Monday with them going to lobby our Congresspeople and their aides. She's excited, but a little anxious about missing school and not having weekend time to stay caught up on homework. And, as I mentioned yesterday, her new BF is in her youth group - four days together and they'll either be "in love" or so over each other!

That sounds fun! I hope Leah has a great time in Arlington (any special interests that she is going to lobby for?)! Also, does that mean that YOU are looking forward to a "quiet" weekend? :-) Hey - maybe we need to start up our "book club" again!?

They are going to spend about 1 1/2 days learning about a variety of "social justice" issues, then they pick one to write a lobbying brief about (with their small group).

We do have a quiet weekend, except for the 7yo LOL. But all three of us (DH, DS, and me) are already thinking "what will we do tomorrow, without Leah?" LOL
