Rob Leaves Home (June 16)
June 16, noon. Mom says: "You guys are getting pretty big. You might want to find different bedrooms elsewhere." |
June 16th: Two hours after Mom suggests we leave the nest, Rob stands up to check out escape routes. |
Rob says: "OK, let me try my wings. I want to soar with the Eagles." |
Rob says: "Gee. That's not working. I don't seem to be going anywhere!" |
Rob: "OK, I'll just sit on you guys while I figure out how to leave." |
Rob: "It's about 8 p.m. I'd better get going before it gets too dark." |
Rob: "Here I go. Wish me luck." |
One foot out. (That only took 15 minutes.) |
"I'm on my way." exclaims Rob. |
Rob: "Look how far I am!" |
Rob whispers from an upper limb: "The bad guys can't even see me. Am I worried? Sure am, but I'm out." |
