Did I really send my 13 year-old off to California this week?
Without me...or Jim...or any other immediate family members?
I did.
Really, really.
Did he really fly on an airplane,
with his school group,
share a Bible verse with all of them,
go to Alcatraz,
the Exploratorium,
Pier 39,
Stanford U.,
the GGB,
and Monterey Bay Aquarium?
Did he
manage his money,
buy his own meals,
keep track of his wallet,
manage not to lose any clothes (or other necessities),
buy souvenirs,
take good notes,
shoot some pictures,
learn a lot,
make good memories,
and store up
great stories to tell?
We'll find out at 1:30 AM tomorrow.
We'll see if (and how) he did it.
I CAN'T WAIT.
Really, really.

oh. wow.
what a wild year for you with "child growth." and i don't mean the shooting up inches and inches kind. i mean the kids getting older and doing things on their own. being responsible. going to a chess tournament. flying to california. getting a drivers' license (that one still terrifies me a bit). i can't believe your kids are old enough to do these things. i can't believe you're old enough to have kids old enough to do these things.
i love you, meg! here's praying it was a great week!
wow. what a year 2008 has been for your family so far! so many exciting growth opportunities for your kiddos (and you and jim in the process :) ). what a blessing that God has given you the grace to raise your kids in such a manner that you can feel confident in all these new adventures. praise Him!
