But I'm very happy.  I'm here in a hotel room on the campus where my son attends school.  My daughter is asleep out on the sofa in our suite. 

We had a calm moment tonight just sitting down together and eating some ice cream in the room.  It was a family moment before the hecticness of what will be parent's weekend.  My son left to return to his dorm room and my daughter and I cleaned up for bed.

I'm looking forward to spending time with my son, seeing his classes and meeting his mentor.  We have concerts to go too, and other parents to meet and of course no time together is complete without a sushi feast!

It just feels good to be together as a family.

Now to get some sleep.  Tomorrow is going to be a big day.
