I'm so glad to hear it. <br /><br />I read your post yesterday about your daughter's journey home. I'm glad she made it safe. I'm also grinning because you sound like my mother who was concerned about me when I was first traveling home for a visit all by my big girl self. =D Memories. (I get that a little bit better now that I'M a mother.) But it also sounds like your daughter is one happy camper and that is also affirming and LOVELY! (Loved that picture.
