Saying goodbye

It wasn't easy. There were a lot of tears, but not as many as I expected for the moment. I even made him cry with my Christmas present.  I'm a little proud of that.  I have a gorgeous painting now that he did for class but he gave to me.  It's truly amazing.  My tears haven't stopped, but I didn't think they would. I know it will be worse when I get back to LA, but I'll deal with that when it happens.
