Do you have ANY idea how much I love you??? Yeah...I know you do...I love that that is our signature saying to each other...the call I made and the statement I made that opened up the door to the most beautiful 3 years of my life. I miss you...

SOOOOO...you are halfway through your first week at Spaulding...how's it going? What do they have you doing? How are you feeling? How does this experience make you feel???? How is living with your family? Have you been able to make peace with that? Has your mother been a help or been just a royal PITA? I know this isn't the best situation but I hope you are getting the privacy and space you need for yourself. I can't imagine living in your sister's sun room does wonders for your privacy, but she insisted and we couldn't argue so there you are... It was the last place Sandy and I wanted you but there didn't seem to be any other place for you to go. People were reluctant to have you come with me because of my new job, and the kids and stuff, but you KNOW my home was and is ALWAYS open to you...you are my family...I love you!!!

Anyway, I look forward to hearing the answers from you on how these early days are at Spaulding. It is supposed to be the best so it better deliver...!! :hahaha:

I had a good day today...kids were good...started Suzuki lessons which THRILLED Margaret. Teaching went well although I keep forgetting these are 1 hour 15 minute lectures not 2 hours like at RPI so I have to shorten my lectures! :hahaha: Otherwise I will run hopelessly behind all semester!

Both kids said prayers for you tonight. Sam said he REALLY loved you and missed you. And he wanted you to hurry up and get well soon. Margaret said a silent prayer...wouldn't share but I know she misses you too and is worried about you.

You are on my mind all day so I hope you feel the healing energy and love pour from me! I am doing well overall, aside from missing you!!! I've moved, I think, into a better place of presence and mindfulness...doing a lot of self-examination, but remaining full of optimism you are getting well and will return to Colorado soon!!! I know your emotional/spiritual recovery will grow exponentially once you are there...that can't come soon enough!!!!

I'm tired...need to sleep so I'm going to close my eyes after reading a bit, OK?? I love you very much...I hold you in my heart and in my dreams!

XOXO Robyn
