Off to College

Wow! Where in the world did the time go?? We took Jacob to college a couple of weeks ago. It seems like just yesterday that he was in Kindergarten with a broken arm, or playing the clarinet in the middle school band, or performing on stage at the high school's spring musical.

Well, now it's time for our first born to leave the nest and spread his wings. He is already loving the college life. He enjoys his classes and right now, he is sick with a cold. I so want to drive down there and make soup and medicate the poor thing. It's not easy mothering long distance. I hope he knows how much he is loved and that we are all cheering him on from the desert.
