Anyone who knows us knows how strongly we feel about our Ida Street family. Well yesterday we had to say good bye to the first one from the block who is growing up and moving on. Our "Big Steven" left today for Georgia he has joined the army. 
There have been the ups and downs of growing up, the kids have seen tough times and good times together and more than once been there for each other. The porch talks have been filled with card games, laughter, the occasional Mrs. H talk, and even tears. Through it all a strong bond has formed that I believe will survive the test of time and distance. There were tears yesterday and the hug strong enough for "big Steven" to tell "little Steven" , 'hey man my lungs' , Staci gave her hug and left the room quickly.

I hope you know our prayers follow you every day on your new journey, and you always have a place to come back to on Ida Street!
Love you The Henrickson side of your family!!
