Update

Well, it has almost been a week since Cassidy has been gone. I have learned a few things about myself as well as my daughter. Since losing her luggage at the airport I learned she can make do with little and still have a good attitude. That is refreshing as a mom. I hear she is doing great and is being very flexible.

I learned I need to trust God more in the care of my children. I had no idea it would be so difficult. I also feel like this has been revealing to just what a control freak I really am. It is not that I did not have any inkling before, but this was just another example from God about how much I seem to try to control.

It has made me examine my purpose as a parent. What do I really think about my kids not needing me. How sad is that? I can't believe I can even think it is about me, but here I am....I know this is a way for me to get used to the idea of my kids moving on. I need to "let go and let God" and put my big girl pants on and deal with it!!

I am so excited to hear how it is going, so the blog has been great. You can check it out at www.thewellrmcc.blogspot.com It has given me specific prayers to take to the God who is so awesome!!
