October 16, 2013 (A Sad Day)

Can't believe the time has come for Max to return to the USA.  We have so much enjoyed our time together.  At twelve this might be the last time he enjoys spending any significant time with his grandparents (as it should be). We are just so grateful to have had this time to share with him and let him see the world beyond Lakewood, Colorado. Bon Voyage Max!

Going...

...going...

...gone!

They wouldn't let us go to the gate with him so he had to find his way on his own.  So proud he was able to navigate Heathrow (which isn't easy!).  He's a great great kid!  Many tears shed (shedding even now as I am writing this entry!).
