My sweet hubby and precious daughter are away looking at a faraway college in central Arkansas. The thought of her leaving for college is difficult but the thought of her being more than a couple of hours away can bring me to tears instantly! You know, this is the big dance...what we have been raising her to do... but it is so hard to let go!
I am so stinking proud of her fierce independence, her ability to cook (and clean the kitchen), as well as her deep love for Jesus. She has a wonderful voice and regularly sings in a praise band. This has really stretched her (ya know, singing IN FRONT of people) but she has risen to the challenge.
Steve and I have terrific kids--we have been unbelievably blessed! Just thinking about all sorts of things...a pink little tikes jeep that sis used to pick up pears in the backyard with her best bud Haley; multiple halloween celebrations with a wagon to pull the kids and their loot; trips to the beach and ballgames; dance recitals; road trip to see Buble!!!...the list goes on and on! For my friends with younger children, love on them EVERY day!
