Tony and I are going to Indianapolis with Madison and the other 99 fourth graders tomorrow for their biggest field trip of their elementary experience. We are staying over night and coming back on Friday night. It is supposed to rain and be in the low 60's tomorrow. I hope God will make some changes after hearing all of our prayers! We meet at the school at 6:15 in the morning. Tomorrow we go to the Monument Circle, the State Capitol Building, and Connor Prairie. Friday we are going to the Indy Motor Speedway and the Indiana State Museum. The 4th graders have studied Indiana history this whole school year. I'm looking forward to seeing all of the Indiana history sites as well... since we had Iowa history instead. Madison thought I had absolutely lost it a few times this year when I asked her to bring her Indiana History book home from school so I could read it.
Quinn is staying at Beppe & Pakka's house. It was a little hard to send him off tonight. He feels a little left out... like we're going on vacation without him. I told him not to come back too spoiled. He laughed, even though I could hear the change in his voice caused by the lump in his throat. They've already made plans to take him and Nate to the circus on Friday night. He'll probably wonder why we came back so soon.
Well, I better be getting myself to bed. I'm not used to getting up so early any more. I had a few years when 4:30am was the norm. I'm spoiled now... 5:15-5:30 will seem too early tomorrow.
I'll write when I can... probably Friday night... unless the hotel has some Internet access for us.
Love to all, Leah
