Consider it pure joy, my friends, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. James 1:2-4

Time Won't Stand Still!

Somewhere in America


A precious angel

Went to her first day


of kindergarten






And a Nana cried






Sigh...



Considering All Things With Joy,

Letters From Midlife said...

I can just imagine the mix of emotions. But it's funny...I got teary-eyed when each my first three kids started school the first time, but when the last one started, my friend and I watched all the kids go in the door while most of the moms cried, but we gave each other a high-five, then went out to breakfast! It was the first time we were each dropping of a child then going home to an empty house! lol!

I am feeling your pain sweet sister! My oldest granddaughter is in first grade (homeschooled) and Eli - her little brother - started prek yesterday at home also.

Time does NOT stand still for them... but it does for us! HA! We still look young!

Yikes...this means my day to send my little guy off into the great big world is coming soon...off to pray through the tears!
