The theme of this year for our family appears to be change. One child moved into an apartment in New York and another will be moving into a college dorm next week. Come August, we will pack another one up and move them into a dorm as well. Another child will get their license and will no longer need us to drive them anywhere. One needs braces and his smile, that we see so often, will change. One has her mind set on trying softball, adding practices and games changes our nights. It is a lot for a heart to feel. Sorting through these thoughts and feelings brings me to a decision, my heart is being expanded again. What new friends will our kids meet that we get to love? Who will be on their softball team or roommate? I wonder if they have heard the Good News yet? Yes, so much change, but many opportunities too. I think we will be just fine.
