Today is Abby's last full day in California for several months, so we observed the occasion with dinner at Black Bear followed by frosty cones at the Dairy downtown.
As I sit here looking over at her doing her orientation prep homework (lucky girl) on the couch across the room, it amazes me to think that we're already here. She'll be 18 in a few months. And tomorrow, she's off to the town that she's intending to call her home-away-from-home for the great majority of the next four years. Life is about to change in a very big way for all of us and... well, I guess that for once, I don't have the words.
While I'm sad that it's time for my one and only girl to take flight, I'm so proud of who she is who she's becoming because she's pretty amazing. God has blessed her with more unique talents than I can count and I can't wait to see them bloom. And I just know that she'll meet awesome people who will become lifelong friends during her time at Wheaton, too. And for those blessings in store for her, I am so thankful.
