A beloved tree is removed from the yard. A child is now an adult and begins the
process of moving out and on towards his future. The other child is receiving mail confirming
her college acceptance with a variety of welcome letters and gifts. The business is blossoming and growing so
fast that restructuring is necessary.
Doors are opening into the future with sunshine and rainbows, hope and
promises.
I am grateful for these changes, for these moments when I have
to let go. Some things, like the tree,
are permanent. Others are the natural
progression of raising children—they may go on, but they can always find this home
again, even when they have found their own homes. The last is being willing to let others enter
in and share their talents for the growth of our business.
They are good things, but cause mixed emotions!
