1st of all let me say they found my daughters friend. Thank the Lord she is fine. She decided to take a road trip and hang out with some friends and not tell anybody. I guess it is a best case scenario in the fact that she is home safe and sound.
Valentine's Day? What can I say. I am not really into the whole commercialism of it all. Here is a day to shower your loved ones with flowers that at any other time of year would cost half as much and spend twice as much on a romantic dinner in an overcrowded restaurant. Its not really my thing. Randy and I don't usually do any of that. Sometimes we get each other cards but aside from that its just another day.
So the 1st week of school went well in spite of being incredibly sick and it snowing here on Friday. I made to all three of my classes and I think I am going to enjoy the semester. I will be glad when the 1st couple of weeks have passed and it will be easier to find a parking space.
I am still trying to figure out why text books are so expensive. I went to buy my books and by the time I walked out of the book store I had spent over $200 and I only bought two books. Crazy!!!
Well I am off to write a paper. Wish me luck :-)

Where do I begin?
My daughters friend is missing.
.....missing??
How exactly does something like this happen?
I came home home from class early and was getting ready for bed when there was a knock at the door. The girls uncle and father were wanting to talk to my daughter Amber who was already asleep. When we realized what the issue was we woke Amber up and she gave them some phone numbers of some mutual friends. My heart goes out to this family. The girl apparently ditched school today and has not been heard from since. My prayers are with them that they find her safe and unharmed.
The disappearance of a child is a parents worst nightmare. I remember when Amber was about three, we were in Ross and she was there once second and the next she was just gone. I kept calling her name and she didn't answer. I was frantic. I told the security guards and made them lock the doors. I was not going to lose my daughter. Suddenly I heard her giggling. She was hiding and thought it was funny. It is not funny. Not then and not now. I wanted my first blog to be a little more cheerful but I am writing what is on my mind.
