For the last couple weeks, my cup overfloweth with drama. Let's just say it's been a lot lately. Take earthquakes and hurricanes, add a week without power and water and sprinkle in some end of the summer blues and I've had enough. But it continues - tomorrow morning, I send my first born off to Kindergarten.
Part of me can't believe I've been unemployed for 5 years. Another part of me doesn't believe that I am going to put him on a bus tomorrow morning and trust that he will get to school ok and that they will deliver him back to me tomorrow afternoon, unscathed.
I am starting a new chapter and ending one at the same time. What no one bothers to tells you when you're newly married or even when you're pregnant is that the hardest part of having children is not the giving birth or the terrible twos (or threes as the case may be) or even potty training. The hardest part, without a doubt, is the letting go.

I'm glad You made it through the Hurricane and earthquakes ok!
Isn't letting go just the hardest part? So true sister. At least you are doing just that--letting go and trusting God. You are such a great example.
