Reflections...

Last week was the first day of school.  As per my tradition, I took a picture of everyone on the first day and then it hit me- When my oldest was a senior I took a picture of him and his younger brother Jedidiah who was entering kindergarten.  Last week I had Jed- now a senior himself and standing next to him was Stephen, my baby going off to kindergarten.
This is the first time in 24 years that I have not had a pre-schooler. What would I do with myself?

Granted, I still have a home-schooled child, a college student and older boys that live here even while graduated but after all these years, what a funny feeling.

I plan to spend my first week reflecting on all the amazing things God has done in the past 24 years and then make a list of where God and I will go in the next 24.

Life is an adventure and as my husband has said many.many times: "It's exciting!"
