So long, L!

We knew for about a year this day was coming. Still, it didn't make it any easier. The moving truck was sitting outside of B's friend L's house today. They're moving to Ohio where his dad found a job over a year ago. This past school year he's been working there while the family stayed here. Coming home from the store, B saw L's mom taking a walk (a break from packing, no doubt) and decided to go talk to her. He ended up finding L and another friend, I, playing wall ball at the schoolyard. They spent about three hours playing one last time.

Coincidentally, E was on Facebook chatting with L's brother, M (her eighth-grade dance date) while he sat at the schoolyard with his iPad. L promises to come back to visit. I hope he does.
