Why is change always so difficult?

Back in May of this year, I got through our middle child’s high school graduation without tears being shed. I thought, woo hoo! This mama made it without loosing her cool.

To be down right honest, this last week has been an emotional one. I seem to be okay during the day time, but then night time hits and my brain thinks it needs to run a marathon.

I am so happy to watch all our kiddos spread their wings and get ready to share their talents with the world.

Only thing that I haven’t taken the time to do much of is thinking about the future. I have been so busy being a mother and keeping my day to day pace, that I forgot to imagine what the future might look like.

I was stewing over that last night when the Lord gently nudged me to let me know that I am not alone in my upcoming changes. He is always right there. I just need to reach out to Him and be open to His presence.

Yes, we will only have one out of three of our kids at home with us now. Will it be different? Yes. I am ready, bring it on Lord!

Paul and I are trying to rediscover ourselves and this time we thoughtfully choose to put the Lord 1st in our lives. Wish we could have had the Lord guiding us from the beginning of our relationship, but that just isn’t our story. And that is okay…
