Going to Kindergarten


When God came to me one morning, more than five years ago, and said he would like for me to have a child, I was afraid.  I said, but I will miss this life of fancy free travelling, working, and all the things I enjoyed doing without tethers and other responsibilities.  But God was stern, and he assured me it would all be great if I would just trust him.  And he brought you into my life and you made me a better, more loving, generous, and interesting person and my travels have been richer and I’ve rediscovered a world of firsts and enjoyed them with you and cried with you and ached inside.  And five short years later, it is time for orientation at the elementary school and I am so sad and afraid because more than anything in the world…I will miss this life.    
 
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.
-Proverbs 3:5
