Reality slapping us in the face

6 calls rom Jefferson at 5:30am. We spoke to Frederick...it appears Jefferson flipped his new car in San Diego sometime early this morning. No confirmation of facts other than it seems he is okay. Although we don't actually know--but he called leaving no messages but spoke with a very sleep-dazed Frederick.

We have emailed his myspace friends. We have spoken with some other friends.

As a parent you just want to know your child is safe. You want to rush home, you want to see that they are in tact. Nothing else matters.

We're edgy, anxious, worried.

Waiting for a phone call. Waiting for an email.

Waiting.

For all it's splendor, grace and beauty I would rather see my son and know he is okay than to have ever experienced any of this wonder in Costa Rica.
