So Blessed

I've been meaning to write this for two weeks now, but God keeps blessing me with things that have kept me busy.

On April 25th I watched my youngest be confirmed. I shed more than a few tears from the moment the processional began, while the 24 young adults entered the church, and when I stood while my son was confirmed. For his Confirmation verse, Luke choose Isaiah 6:8

Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I, send me.

I love this verse and can't begin to describe my emotions when I first learned Luke chose this for himself.

I am so proud of my son and the young man he has become. In a few more weeks he will graduate from 8th grade and I am sure a few more tears will be shed.
