Happy Birthday Uncle Ben.

Can I be honest about something? Im just not having a good day today. I went back and read all these past entries. There are so many of them, spanning years and years.
Then something occurred to me - time just keeps moving forward. Its going to just keep moving forward. Things will continue to change. Things will continue to grow. Things will continue to keep going.
Time never stops.
For some reason, that made me so sad. I know its...

Well hello there stranger!
I haven't written in awhile, like two years it looks like. I had just moved to GA last time I wrote. I'm sorry it's taken me so long. You know what's been going on though so I doubt you're too mad. :p

Hey Uncle Ben,
It's been awhile since I've written. I'm sorry about that. I've just been busy lately.
I live in GA now and I really love it. It's really nice down here - it's never too cold and I dunno, I really like the difference between crowded Manassas and the town I live in now. It's different, but I really like it.
I have a job now too! I'm lucky because Travis' mom got me the job, or found it for me. I'm on office girl now. Funny though right? Me behind a desk? It's nice...

I will never forget, I love you son my sweet Ben...love ma
