A new phase in our lives-empty nesters

     In a couple of days our daughter will be starting a new chapter in her life and so will we. Our daughter will be starting college! Even though we are ready to let her go out into the world, our life as we have known it is changing. For the last 18 years our focus has been on what has been best for her. We have been able to lavish much of our time and attention on her. It has really paid off! She is a very confident and very intelligent young lady. We are very confident that she will do great things in the world. My faith tells me that God will protect her and help her make independent choices. If she falters in the future, God will give her the strength to figure out a good solution, too,
