November 23

This kiddo right here (who is Isaac, in case my photography skills are a bit lacking) sat down on the couch with his laptop late this afternoon.

I assumed he was playing a game for a while, but there were more pauses and long looks at the screen than usual, I eventually asked what he was doing.

And I was surprised --and pleased-- when he replied that he was working on his college applications.

And now, five hours later, he's still sitting in the same spot diligently working on those apps.

He doesn't like it much when I say I'm proud of him, but I am. He's a good kid and I know God has amazing plans for his life.
