Saying Goodbye

Yesterday we went over to my parents house to say goodbye one last time before they head off for the adventure of their lives, second to raising seven children of course. It was sad to say goodbye, in some strange way it felt like I was sending my children off to their first day of kindergarten. Maybe it has to do with the circle of life thing when the children start feeling the need to become caretaker of their parents, I don't know. I know they will do awesome in South Dakota and fulfill everything God asks them to do. But I am guessing that the people of South Dakota will have more of an affect on my parents then my parents will on them. That is just how service is. You go to serve people and before you know its because of them allowing you to serve them, you receive the overflow of blessings of knowing people that will change your life forever. I miss them already, but know they are in good hands.
