One day we have to give them back.
When my son moved out I was excited he was chasing his dream, but during the drive to his new home I had a jumbled up mix of emotions: sadness, thrill, worry, and guilt. That’s when my prayers that God would lead him grew more intense. I did my best to prepare him, but is our best as parents ever enough? I don’t think so. We’ve heard that children are a gift from the Lord that one day we must give back. But here’s the thing, the “giving back” starts the day we get them. Make the most of today.
