We drove down to Bloomington after school/work for Riley to speak to her committee.  It just felt "different" than the other years that we've done the same.  One young man was in tears as he shared that he only has a few weeks left before he's done with DM.  His brother was the head of this committee years ago so we've known him forever.  There was a lot of "begging" Riley to go to IU but honestly, she's just not ready to make a decision yet.  The one thing different than every other year?  I left her there with her friends.
