        Thanks for the reply. I love the picture of you with the cat. Good Luck with your move back home. Your parents will enjoy having you home for awhile until you find a job, etc.

        part of me wants that “awhile” to take a really long time. the other part is screaming “i need to get on with my life”. ugh, growing up is hard…especially in a bad economy!

    Super pix, Kaitlin! You have captured so much of your heart for the land and the people of Georgia in them, and in your posts. I second the sentiments of Ginger: you are amazing!! God bless you and keep you! Sue

    Love your pictures! It’s funny that you said the kids were cute but deceiving,that’s pretty much what all parents have said about our own kids at one time or another.Thanks for the pictures!!
