Off to college

Shawn’s sister Shanda (above left) went to college this past week.  She’s attending a private Christian college about 4 hours north of here. 

We had the privilege of taking her to school and moving her in.  As we were driving away, I was thinking that it seemed like just yesterday when her mom was in the hospital with a broken leg and Shanda was still nursing and I kept her for a week.  She cried a LOT that week.  By the end of the week, we were in good shape.  I weaned her. 

It seems like just last week she was dancing and prancing around the neighborhood in her dress up clothes playing house.

It seems like yesterday she was in junior high.

And yet, here she is… all grown up and going to college.
