Change is coming.
Not only in the weather, but also in our family.
Our oldest, Cassie has moved out and away from home.
I was expecting the move out part, but the moving away part,
not so much.
However, she is happy, and as far as I know, she is loving
her new home,
TEXAS.
It's been 5 weeks since she has moved out.
Where has the time gone?
Each day seems to pass faster than the day before.
I look in the mirror and I wonder where that
young, fresh faced Denise went.
The clock keeps ticking, and seems that I feel I can't catch up.
I'm at that phase in life where I wish I could have
days back to relive.
I so miss the times when I was a stay at home mommy.
Where we'd play and read and play some more.
Now, my days are filled with work and things I really
don't enjoy doing at all.
BUT, I know there is a purpose for me here, and
doing the things I don't really care for.
One could say, God is building my character.
LOL
But I know I'm being the helpmate God asked me to be,
the day I said I DO to my one and only love.
Summer is fast approaching and
change is in the air.
We will be empty nesters starting June 25th.
At first, I have to admit I was dreading the day,
but now, I'm welcoming it.
It means I will get to spend time with my husband again,
just him and I.
I will miss having my house filled with the voices
of my girls, and their laughter and fussing,
yes, I will miss the fussing, but
I know they are both where they are suppose to be.
Morgan is going to be an intern this summer for
God's Mountain Ministries.
God is showing her (whether she knows it or not) where
her talents lie. She is a remarkable young lady
who loves kids and it shows in how she interacts
with them and how she truly gives each one
her undivided attention.
I'm proud of the passion she has to want to be a part
of an amazing experience she will have this summer
at God's Mountain.
I really miss my girls. I really miss them.
I wish we would have hugged more.
Did I say I really miss them?
I'm looking forward to the week Cassie will be
here for a visit, and a wedding.
Also, Morgan will be home for a couple of weeks
before she is off to God's Mountain for the summer.
At least, Morgan will be close, and her dad and I
can travel up to see her, take her out to dinner,
and just spend time with her.
We are planning a trip to Texas to visit Cassie.
Hoping to spend time with her and her
showing us around her new town and home.
Hoping also we can be there in time to listen
to her sing with a group of musicians - they call
themselves Tree House. (look them up on
facebook and LIKE them!)
So, this summer things are changing.
I'm going to welcome it.
I'm going to enjoy the time I have with Rob.
We will get to know each other in a whole new way,
like we once knew each other before, before children.
It will be a time for us to grow closer
and plan our future.
Change is good, Yes?
Yes, I believe so.
Come on Summer, let's get started.
