One week to go.

Drew is leaving for his grown up life next week.
Of course I am sad to have him leave, but I am also rejoicing! It is time for him to move on, but I am worried about him running his own life. Crazy, huh?
I worry that he will be just like his dad and marry the first psycho girl that comes along and then not go to college. (yes, I called myself a psycho girl, I knew myself back then, lol)
I want Drew to get a degree and marry someone who is spiritually his equal. I want him to have fun for a few years and travel and go on mission trips and grow spiritually before he marries.
I trust God, though, and I know that His plans are for Drew's good and not harm. I have to trust that Drew will FOLLOW God like he has been taught to do. I also have to let him make mistakes and learn from them.

Not an easy thing to push let your baby walk out the door without you. I do think Drew will do fine and do wonderful things.
