"Even though I am going to miss you like crazy this year, I agree with and respect with what you are doing." Tess said, as she led me to my gate at the airport. "Will you please tell every-one there hi for me?""Of course I will!" I smiled. Giving Tess a big hug, I smiled and said, "I love you and I will see you in May.""I love you more, and am looking forward to it." Tess smiled, hugging me both gently and tightly at the same time.
