College Bound.

Well, today is the day.  Today we are moving our baby girl to Alva.  It seems like only yesterday that Madison started kindergarten.  Now, she is ready to start her new adventure of college.  After we load the vehicles and make last minute stops, we are off to North Western Oklahoma State University!!

It seems like this day has taken forever to get here.  Except for the last 10 months or so.  That period of time has went soooooo fast!  Her senior year was not long at all.  Now Hannah is an eighth grader and Madison a freshman in college.  I know she is ready and she is going to do great.  I hope all the life lessons we have taught her will stay with her and guide her. 

There is so much I would like to say, but it isn't necessary.  She knows how her mom and I feel about her.  She knows how proud we are to call her our daughter.  She knows that we will support her in future decisions and endeavours.  She knows how to make wise choices.  She knows who to turn to when she needs something.

Dear God,
   Look over my daughter.  Look over all of the sons and daughters as they start this new chapter of their lives.  Guide them in all of their decisions.  Be their rock, their salvation.  One they can count on in anytime of need.  Give them strength.  Give them peace and understanding.  When they come home for a visit, please be their passenger.  Keep them safe.  Let them know how much they are loved.  In Jesus name, I pray.  Amen

Good luck, Madison.  Have a great year.
