Graduation Nearing
Yes, tomorrow we will watch our little girl graduate from high school!! It is just coming up too quickly for me! I am so filled with emotion and anything makes me cry these days. I have never been much of a cryer but it seems things have changed over the past 5 years!!!!
If you are a regular blog reader of mine then you know by now my DH is a sr pastor and we have been on the mission field for 5 years now. We came back to the states so my daughter could graduate with her former classmates. Well, it's been a stretching 5 years and I have to say that I have learned all the more to appreciate the qualities in my daughter. Her heart is so precious.
The other day we went into Old Navy and I wanted to see the sales rack and we found a couple shirts for 2.97. That is amazing!!!! So, she tried them on and then found a shirt for 7.00. Well, she tells me not to get the 7.00 shirt because it is too expensive and I agreed. But, after a bit, I just wanted to get it for her anyway. So I tell her to go get it and she says-ok Mom you can just wrap it up for me and it can be my graduation present!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok-I hear about kids wanting cars, and every other electronic gizmo out there and my daughter wants a 7.00 shirt! She has always been this way too-even when we weren't in full time ministry. She is so sensitive and loving!! It's going to be hard to leave her in Aug and go back to Hungary while she stays here for college! Yikes-can't fathom that idea yet :)
Anyway, still keeping so busy here-the pace is just beyond what I am used to. Seems like we are always on the run and it drives me batty. I can't wait to slow down a bit and go to the beach :) DH returns to Hungary on Tuesday so we will be without him. I have a feeling it will be a long month and a half til he returns. He is performing a wedding here in Aug and then he and I will both go back to HU at the end of Aug.
Well, sorry, no pictures yet. It's so hard to use someone else's computer. I will try to put some up soon though :)
Trust in the Lord and dwell on His faithfulness!!!! He is good-faithful and true!! Our helper and our friend. The giver of all we have!!!
Blessings upon your day :)
