Well, I woke up this morning and glanced at the clock...6:08 am. Another Tsunami hit...in only 24 hours Grant will be gone. A somber moment for me. As he has said from the beginning, "I've waited my whole life for this-" he truly has and I too have known this day would come but it still doesn't make it easy. He has been home just 3 weeks and we have had busy days of preparation, shopping, talking, counseling, laughter, hugs, and blessings...but it doesn't come without signs of tears of joy and tears of separation. The apron strings seem to be like rubber bands, thinning and thickening with each stretch. I think on days like these the bands are VERY thin being pulled to the limit. With last minute gatherings, phone calls, text messages, best wishes, and his setting apart tomorrow- he is ready! Now if I can hold up we'll be good.
