On Labor Day Monday the whole family was at our house. We had a beautiful day together reminiscing, laughing and enjoying each others company. We also had what we termed a nice "indoor" picnic. When the day was getting close to an end we went outside to enjoy some beautiful weather and get a few pictures of the kids. When it was time for everyone to go to their own homes we were all still outside. It all started innocent enough...
Lindsey was in the van helping Emi get everyone "hooked" in and giving them hugs.
After Emi's van was loaded she started signing this song... "GOOD BYE".
Before you know it...
the kids were singing...
then Lindsey, Lacey and I joined in...
and we were all harmonizing to "GOOD BYE" -
LAUGHING, as Emi and the kids drove away.
We were all starting to calm down some on the front lawn and here came Emi down the street, in here white van, kids loaded, windows down...
singing "GOOD BYE"
So we all joined in again with her singing and laughing...
Then Curt and I continued to share good-bye's with the other family as they left one by one...
and suddenly my heart is lonesome for the sound of "GOOD BYE"
