Mine did
Two days ago
To go to college
I miss her so
As memories flash my lips curl upward with a soft smile
I feel tears welling in my eyes
Memories are a sweet gift
Taking the time each day to make them, a wise choice
Amazing grace that she was given to me causes gratitude to flood over me
Reminding me that her Father in heaven gave her to me for a season
A season of loving, encouraging, training, laughing, experiencing, growing, molding
The day to day ebb and flow of life that causes life to be richer…sweeter
A means to an end
That is far more about His plans for her than mine
Her preparedness for what lies ahead
Known only by Him
Gratitude for changes in me
Gaining in ways never imagined until I became Mom
Realization that without Him I am less than
Oh how He loves us
My arms ache this day
Leaving me longing
Remembering the past
Reminding me to pray for her future
And trusting in the One who knows it
Give me strength
This is draining
A piece of my heart is missing
Tears flow…sweet release
