Ashley called last night

When I got home from school last night, Brian was on the phone with Ashley. He motioned to me to let me know she called him and that she was crying. He gave the phone to me and I asked what was going on. She said she was very sorry for hurting us and for what she put us through. She is thinking about coming home because she misses everyone. We are still hurt by how she chose to handle things, but I am glad she called. Thats a step in the right direction. She said she wants to be home for my graduation. I really hope she grew up a little from all this. She has a lot of thinking to do and some choices to make about her future. I just hope that one of those choices are to keep the lines of communication open.
