Roots and wings to fly

     My daughter wrote a note on facebook about her daughters going off to college today.  I shed a few tears myself, and then thanked God that these girls have good roots that will keep them balanced as they spread their wings and fly away…  God go with you, J.D. and D.J.  Your time has come.  God wrap his arms around their mama and daddy as the bittersweet quiet envelopes them…  I know.  I’ve been there.

It was easier for me to send them to college than it was when I realized that even tho my home was a base it would never be their final landing spot again.

We miss them when they grow up and fly the coop, but that’s the way life is and want it to be.Willy of

Yep, that’s a sad time.

I remember crying all the way home after moving my youngest into the university of Nebraska. I was driving a big black van we had at that time and could barely see to drive.

Oh another passage, bittersweet, but so beautiful.
