It's Been One Year

Last year at this time our little family was making some changes.  I was anticipating my first time ever of going to college, and my girls were making a big change with a new school.  I remember it was so hot the first week or two of school.

This year it will be a rainy first day start.  This will be their second year and I will be finishing up in November.  I do not know why I am so nervous for them.  I honestly wish I could stay and hold their hands through the first day, just till the butterflies go away.  If I could split myself in two, and the school would allow me to hover, I would.

Instead, I will do the right thing, the only thing that will ensure them the strength they need to succeed in this life.  I will pray without ceasing.  Sometimes in life I face emotional challenges that bring me closer to God.  I never thought this would be one of them.
