And off he goes......
It is time........well the time has come and gone.
And so has Greg :(
He left this morning after church. I think I did pretty good at keeping myself together, that is at least until after he left. Then I let it fly. I did try to keep myself together for the kids, but didn't really succeed. As I was sitting in the chair crying, Grace and Jadyn came and sat in my lap. (Jacob never stopped playing Wii, though - can you feel the love?) So Grace proceeded to tell me that it would be OK. "It's going to be OK Momma. You know, I care. I am like a CareBear - I just care. Please don't cry Momma. This is what I feel like when I go to school and I miss you. I just want to cry but I tell myself 'Don't cry Grace'. So just tell yourself 'Don't cry' - OK Mom?" And on and on and on the conversation went. If you know Grace, you understand. She is such a HUGE blessing to me. I praise God for such a loving, compassionate child. They are obviously all great, but she definitely has such a genuine heart.
God is good and we have committed Greg into His care. We prayed that he would have a safe trip and a good first week at his new job. He is going to do great! I am so proud of him and know he will be the BEST purchasing manager EVER! And in the meantime, I will try not to miss him so much - yeah, right!!!!

ReplyDeleteHi Michelle, I'm a friend of Julie's and I have been through this, twice as a matter of fact, for six months each time. I will pray for you and your family. I'm close by if you need help, or a break from 24/7. Blessings!
