Emptying Nest


My nest is emptying. 

Norah, my oldest, returned to New College Franklin yesterday to set up her apartment and prepare for her senior year of college. 

Yesterday, Avril, my middle daughter, who will be a senior in our homeschool next year, went to the Summer Scholars program at Templeton Honor's College for the next two weeks. She's taking a class called "Elves and Eden."

I am enjoying the quality time alone with my youngest, Adele. 

She and I are planning some visits with friends, and we are hoping the weather clears so that we can go on some adventures. 

With two out of three girls gone right now, this is a short preview of what it will be like as my daughters grow up and leave home more and more until they stay away all the time and only come back to visit. 

I am certainly surprised this season is upon me so fast. 

Nevertheless, I find my soul still within me. 

"In every change, He faithful will remain."
