The 3 Musketeers are all starting new chapters in life...its scary and hard to all go our separate ways. We all went our separate ways for college, but were all within hours of home and could come home for a weekend when ever we needed! However, with this new chapter, it is going to be very unlikely that all three of us will be reunited for about a year. It is so scary, but I know that God has amazing things in store for all of us!!!
Sarah got married!!! She was beautiful!!! The day was gorgeous! It was wonderful to laugh and dance and party it up with lots of friends!! It was really cool to see Dan Schmidt, as he was flown in to marry her! The day went really smoothly! She had fun, and told her Mom right before they left for the honeymoon that the day had been perfect!!!
SO happy for the two of them!!!
Watching my best friend drive away with her HUSBAND, I had to cry (for the first time all day!!) Somehow I know that things will change, she will always be my best friend, but now she has that man by her side through it all!
The other 3 musketeer is embracing in her own new journey in life as she moves to Germany to be an RA at Black forest Academy. Stephanie is so excited for this opportunity to serve God, while helping out fellow missionaries but being "a soccer mom" to their students while they are away at school! She is brave and bold and so ready to do whatever God calls her to do! So, tonight, only one night after I waved good-bye to Sarah, I have to attend a going away party for Steph! I am so happy for her and couldn't wish anything better for her, but all the while there is that selfish lump in the back of my throat....both girls in one weekend...not sure how I am going to do it!! I love them both and am so proud of the amazing women God has molded them to be!
Everyone keeps reminding me that in just a short while I too will be leaving this area and heading to Texas, but right now that seems a long way off! I know that the God I serve is amazing and that He will give me the strength to let both of these people go, but it is not going to be easy! These girls have been my life since 7th grade and it is not easy to part ways. Keep praying for strength during this transition phase and for the financial funds for me to go to YWAM! May God wrap His loving arms around you today!!!
