The Kern children have been leaving home off and on since 1999 when Philip left for BYU. Since then we have had children coming and going steadily. All three boys have served missions and have been away for two years at a time. And all three boys have gone away to college. Additionally, Philip has been married since March of 2007. This summer at one time or another the other children were at home. Erika hadn't really left, Peter returned from his mission in Montreal in June, and K.C. returned home following his graduation from college which was on August 15th. Then Peter left the last week in August to return to Provo for his sophomore year at BYU, and Erika left September 4 to go to Rexburg, Idaho to attend BYU-I. K.C. left on October 10th for his new life in San Francisco as an employee of Accenture. And now Dad and I are the exclusive residents of the domaine.
Dad left on Wednesday evening to take the Salt Lake Express Shuttle to Idaho Falls. He is ferrying Grandpa and Grandma back to Loveland, Colorado in their car on Thursday and Friday and Sunday morning he will take the train back to Salt Lake City. In the meantime, I am feeding the horses and am the sole occupant of our Oak Valley residence.
