Bye Mom! Drive safe! Come back soon. I love youuuuu!
Charlie, singing while you were away:
‘My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
and while you’re out there getting where you’re getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish…” — Rascal Flatts
On a lighter note:
“Mama don’t let your babies grow up to be cowboys
Don’t let ‘em pick guitars and drive them old trucks
Make ‘em be doctors and lawyers and such…” —Willie Nelson
