Prodigal son
My amazing son Emerson has returned from his mis-adventures in Utah. He went back there in January to be with his mom and his friends. We missed him more than I could ever describe! Utah presented him with greater challenges than he expected. He fell in with the wrong crowd and he found himself alone without any supervision more often than not. His return came suddenly and in an interesting way. Friday night I got a text from someone in their neighborhood expressing their concern for Emerson and his safety. Saturday more calls from others expressing more concerns. Sunday 3 a.m. call from Emerson saying he needed to come home now before he got into real trouble. Sunday 8:30 Emerson boards a plane and by 3:30 p.m. he was home. Now he is settling down in to the craziness that is our family life :) He starts school tomorrow; eager to charge forward toward his future and embrace the challenges it will bring. I am grateful to Heavenly Father for watching over him when we couldn't and returning him to us safely!
