Wait, It's Almost May?

I can't believe my Noah has been away at school since August. When we left him there at school, my heart broke and there was so much uncertainty as to how things would work out.

I worried about how he'd come home for breaks. I wondered if my poor hubby would be able to keep up with the extra work load, so that Noah can graduated with as little debt as possible. I was concerned about how Noah would handle the pressure of classes,  and eating and making friends, midterms and finals, ugh!

But, here we are at the end of his first year of college. He rocked it! He grew spiritually and academically. He navigated college life like a champ. Calculus was a challenge but we are hopeful that he'll do well on his final and pass it well.

Every time he wanted to come home for break, God worked it out. He even worked out a ride to come because of dear friends and their wonderful son who also attends school there.

We've seen God come through in amazing ways this year. And not just with Noah's school but, even some other challenges we were met with regarding Lily getting her learner's permit. Yes, Lily is learning to drive! My last baby is learning how to drive and has her sights set on college already.

Isn't it funny how day by day nothing seems to change, but then you look back and so much has changed. I'm amazed at how quickly time passes.

I'm looking forward to warm, summer days, making memories with the family and having most of us under one roof again.
