Poppy and I are on road trip to see Austin and Annie this weekend in San Luis Obispo. Victoria, Barret and Willow are staying back so that I can spend some invaluable and memorable one-on-one time with Austin while Poppy spends some invaluable and memorable one-on-one time with Annie. Austin and I have been talking about doing this for a few weeks now, so I took today off, hopped into the car about 2:00 p.m. or so, and drove south for three and a half hours with Poppy in the back seat. She sang songs on the way down, we quoted a few Bible verses together and she slept for a couple of hours. Austin has some huge life-changing and life-long decisions ahead of him, so it's our hope to talk, pray, do some more talking and praying, and then do some more of the same. We're here at Austin's home now where six other college students live. I'll sleep on the floor, while Poppy will sleep with her big sister in her twin sized bed at Annie's house; that should be cozy.I'll report back later with more details about our visit, but for now we're content just to be here and bask in the savory friendship and brotherhood we have in Christ, just father and son. And Annie will do the same with her little Pop-Tart. We'll head home tomorrow just 24 hours after arriving here. It's going to be a quick one.
Warmly in Christ,
Tom (& Poppy)
