A Bittersweet Goodbye

I know I have been silent for almost a month on here, but I have been working close to 50 hours a week since the beginning of May for HealthFitness. And then every weekend in May has been spent in Emporia helping my parents with their move to Springfield, MO. Although I am extremely excited for their new life, it has been a bittersweet change at the same time. It was hard saying goodbye for good to the house I grew up in and realizing the fact that I won't be visiting friends and family in Emporia anymore. Of course I have been away during college and since being married, but I could always slip down to Emporia for a relaxing and refreshing weekend at home with the folks. On the other hand I am thrilled for them and admire them as they have been called into the missions field at this point in their lives. They have been a real example of following the Lord's leading and trusting Him through it all. While in Springfield, they will be attending Baptist Bible College for a year then missions work likely in India. I can't wait to see how God works in their lives during this new adventure. Love you both and good luck in college :)
