It is hard to watch the years slip by, and to watch my children get older . . YIKES! I had no idea Hannah would be moving far away. Oh Carrie I am sad for you. But, God has a plan, and you have experienced it before and I know it must make the time spent together so much sweeter. Looking forward to some wedding planning info on your blog (hint hint)! And yes, let's enjoy this beautiful Missouri weather while it lasts. Blessings to you my friend!Down On The Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00172041056064630527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5790575783281900923.post-5243703931547790102012-01-06T04:17:07.986-06:002012-01-06T04:17:07.986-06:00Thanks for the thoughts on growing old and the cha...Thanks for the thoughts on growing old and the changes, I am struggling with embracing this, not myself but my children, my oldest is graduating from high school this year. I go between being excited for him and all that God is going to do in and through him to just weepy and sad at how the time has flown. I really want to do it gracefully, I know that I am going to miss him coming home everyday and the closeness of him and just having him around. I tell him he can leave just come home to visit often. I am thankful for the years I have had with him, but he is just the beginning of my five children moving on, will they look forward to coming home to see Mom and Dad? I pray so. It is good to be reminded I am not the only one who has children growing up and moving on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5790575783281900923.post-33243801950005678562012-01-05T14:11:17.547-06:002012-01-05T14:11:17.547-06:00Sorry, forgot to mention...Will be praying for you...Sorry, forgot to mention...Will be praying for you as I cannot even imagine how you are feeling about Hannah moving so far away....I always cry at the thought of that happening to me...cannot even imagine being so far from my grandson Jace...I tear up just typing this.

Love the scripture verses as well.<br /><br />I have days where I feel very old and other days where I feel very young. (smile). We are in the process of our fourth adoption. This time through the ministry. I will be 48 this year and some might think that I'm too old...but one is never to old to adopt. Your post has just confirmed that for me.<br /><br />Thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing this post.<br /><br />Hugs,<br />ConnieIntentional Living Homesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13865476434729958056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5790575783281900923.post-53586294286943987242012-01-05T12:21:09.918-06:002012-01-05T12:21:09.918-06:00Carrie -- very warm here today too :)
I may grow ...Carrie -- very warm here today too :)<br /><br />I may grow older (and hopefully wiser) but never old :)<br /><br />You already KNOW what it is to have a daughter far, far away. It would have to be harder to allow another one to go. Bless you all as you go thru the changes the next few months bring to your family.<br /><br />Blessings!<br />GailAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09253567615198041943noreply@blogger.com
