Today was bittersweet. Our summer has come to an end. The long lazy days of sleeping in, lounging by the pool, going to the beach, and continuous fun are over. Now it's alarm clocks, busy mornings, and back to the freeway! Argh!
As Austin jumped out of the car with backpack in tow, and raced towards his new school there was no looking back for him only excitement and a little nervousness to what this new season holds.
I decided to park and saw some moms I knew standing at a distance from the kids, so as to not intrude. I guess it's no longer cool to walk your 7th grader to their first class and don't even think about taking pictures. They invited me to the Tuesday morning prayer meeting they have on campus. What a amazing group of moms and dads that I met. Even more, what a privledge it was to be praying in unity for the covering of our children and praising Jesus for his faithfulness and provision. Psalm 103:2 says, "Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits-" what benefits we have indeed!
Our days of summer may have ended but I cheerish the time spent with family and friends. "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under heaven." Ecc.3:1
