NOT QUITE ALL CYLINDERS

Maddy, 4, doesn’t quite get it that her two older sisters will be away at college for the next few months. When we told her that they were leaving for school, she acted like it was no biggie. She must have it mixed up with her regular trips to preschool.

At the grocery store, I let her pick out two going-away cards for her sisters. Then she dictated messages:

‘’Hug the Baylor Bear for me,’’ she instructed Neely. The school mascot’s hijinks with Maddy at a baseball game was a highlight of her visit there last year.

‘’Have a good day at school,’’ she dictated for Jordan.

Wonder when she’ll start missing them? Best bet: bedtime. She’ll be down two hugs. Come to think of it . . . so will Mom!

Prayer request: Praise, Father, that Jordan arrived safely in Chapel Hill, and her roommate even washed her sheets for her first night’s rest. Thank You, Jesus. We lift up Neely, driving over 12 hours today to Texas, for Your tender automotive care. We’re grateful, Lord, for their level-headedness that we know comes straight from You. (Psalm 92:4)
