I am sad he is leaving, although I know he will be back. We have not seen much of one another since I returned. He has been drowning in reading and writing assignments for graduate degree program. (I would almost swear he is doing more work than I did in law school - almost.) He sat by while I took three years to make one of my life's dreams come true.
