Growing Pains (Home to heather creek)

The end of summer is nearing, and Charlotte has an opportunity to go on a girls€ weekend with Hannah. Charlotte just isn€t sure, though, about taking time for herself. What if the family needs her while she€s gone? Everyone may be pursuing their own interests€"Bob has a part-time job at AA Tractor, Emily is babysitting to earn extra money, and Christopher has joined the church youth group€"but Charlotte would worry anyway. How will the family show her it can stand on its own two feet when she€s away? Meanwhile, Sam starts classes at Central Community College, but it€s not what he imagines. Will he be able to stick it out when the going gets tough? As the family grows together, they€re all reminded that the answers to their troubles can come in unexpected ways.
