INTERNATIONAL CAPS LOCK DAY

THIS DAY WAS CREATED IN 2000 TO POKE FUN AT ALL THE PEOPLE WHO TYPE IN ALL CAPS. IT BECAME SO POPULAR THAT IT'S CELEBRATED TWICE A YEAR... TODAY AND ON OCTOBER 22. ACTUALLY, IN ORDER TO CELEBRATE, YOURE SUPPOSED TO NOT USE CAPS LOCK AT ALL. SO I FAILED.

And now back to sanity. I got a call this morning that Sage is leaving tomorrow for good to live with her aunt and uncle. I knew this was imminent, but didn't expect it so soon. So I quickly printed a picture of me to put into her goodbye card and headed to Pizza Hut for her favorite lunch. When I got there, she was so happy and beaming like I've never seen. As our visit progressed she got sadder and I explained that change is difficult, but I know she'll be fine. She said she hated to leave me, but I promised her that there will always be people in her life to mentor her, officially or not. It may be a teacher or a boss or just someone she meets along the way. And now I pray for her success. I'm so happy for her!
