Goodbye Spring!
April 27, 2018
Goodbye Spring!
Jaquline says “goodbye spring!” as we drop Christina and Rebeccah at their final exam.
“Goodbye spring?” I ask.
“Yes, goodbye spring classes,” Jaquline laughs. “Now we have summer classes!”
I smile. Yes, today is the final day of spring classes for the dual enrollment students. Although Kimberly, Jaquline, and Jillian don’t really transition into anything different at this point, Rebeccah is doing two refresher arithmetic courses over summer while Christina gets a week break and jumps into Psychology and more algebra.
For our family, spring classes shifting to summer means transition from every day at the college campus to later classes twice a week.
The transition brings expectation: we “kick summer off” with an awesome event where we are an annual vendor. Our textbook money and hopefully some residual book sales will come from this year’s participation in the Alpha-Omega Family Fun Fest. (If you are reading this before 8pm on April 28, 2018, come see us at Francis Field, Saint Augustine!)
We have a family trip planned. Christina goes to summer encampment with her fingers crossed that she’ll be accepted as a flight sergeant. Kimberly is training for running in any kid-friendly 3K or 5K Aunt Katy or I find. She’s super excited to get to run with her sister-cousin! We are expanding our chicken flock and livestock base.
We always find things to be excited about and wonder what God has planned for us in each new season.
I silently pray for God’s wisdom and guiding hand in our transition and exciting new season we are entering. Thank you, Jesus, for giving me a moment of reflection!
Thanks for reading!
Type at you next time…
