Goodbye High School

This is what I looked like this morning as I said goodbye to Computer Geek as he left for school. Today is Computer Geek's last day of High School. Of course, he was already up and dressed sitting in the den talking to his dad (which is a rarity because Big D is always gone before we get up). Well, I went to wake up Football Star and flipped on his light and said, "Waaaake uuuup! Its the last day of school for the year!" Then as reality hit me before I made it to the den the tears began to flow and I looked at Computer Geek and said, "Good Morning! Today is your last day of High School!" He and Big D exchanged looks and smiled. Then I heard them say as I turned to fix breakfast, "I knew she would start crying." As I fixed his breakfast for the last time, my mind went back to his first day of kindergarten when I fixed his breakfast the first time. I had so many fears and worries that day. Worries that he would feel confused and scared and I wouldn't be right there to help him. And as he starts this new chapter in his life, funny how those same worries are still the ones I had when he was in kindergarten! I am thankful even tho I worry that I have a Heavenly Father that eases those burdens when they become too much to bear. God has always kept His hand on him and I know He will continue to keep him throughout the rest of his journey.

Until next time.....

God Bless~
