This morning Rachel and her husband Walter came to the house to pick up the kids for the summer. This is not my favorite day as it is always hard to see the kids go. I did take the opportunity, as we always do, to give them a fathers blessing before their departure. Grateful that I can do that and grateful to the Lord who watches over them and keeps them safe.
Seems that every time the kids go I think to myself that I will now have a little time to go on some dates. I might get in one or two dates but the reality is that I seem to be just as busy. Maybe dating is just not a priority in my life. Truthfully, right now it is not. My kids are the priority and have been for the last eight years. I think that is hard for some people to grasp and some feel I should be remarried and moving on with life. I suppose there is some truth to that but at the same time, life just isn't that simple. I have a couple of classes to finish still and then I might have a little free time until the new school year begins and I am student teaching. Then all bets are off. I don't think I will know what free time is for 4 months or so. That won't be anything new though.
Well, sad times in Cedar City. Nat will be back in a month and the boys will be home sometime in late July or early August. It will be quiet around here but we will make it through.
