Savannah's graduation from High School and seeing her off to College was the next milestone that comes to mind. From what I learned from others I expected this to be hard. I expected to do alot of crying. I felt concerned that maybe I had a hard heart when I did not cry. I was overflowing with joy and peace! I was excited for her to start her own life! I trusted her choices. I was confident in her future. I think it helped that I was dropping her off at a school I attended for two years. I felt I knew the experiences she would experience. I walked the same halls. I sat in the same desk. I ate in the same lunchroom. I slept in the same dorm. I was leaving her in good hands with those I knew, love & respected.
A fourth milestone that I recall was the day she got married. "What a great husband he will be, what a great life she will have with Lance" I thought. Again, I pondered it strange that only a few tears slipped down my cheek. I felt overwhelmed with joy! The Lord had provided so much for this Wedding that we could not afford. It was so beautiful and special. We were surrounded by so many people that loved us and were happy for them as well as us. What a truly amazing day filled with the Lord's blessings! |
