We have started a new chapter in our lives. Austin is now a Freshman at North Greenville University in Tigerville, SC. We moved him into his dorm room yesterday morning, ate lunch together in the "caf", picked up a couple of last minute items at the campus bookstore and then went to a parent/student meeting. After the meeting, we drove back over to the dorm and said our goodbyes, admitedly with a few tears shed.
While we are excited for him and looking forward to the opportunities the future holds, we are still missing him already. Pray with us that the Lord will do great things in this new chapter in his life.
I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. Phillipians 1:3-6
