Today, my son, Geoff, embarked on his first solo trip away from home. He left early this morning, in his car, on his way to western Maryland. He's been planning this trip all summer - working a lot and saving as much money as he could.
The trip will take him about 9-1/2 hours to get there. He promised me that he would stop every so often to eat and stretch out and walk around. A wonderful friend of ours loaned him her Tom Tom navigation system, which is fabulous.
My husband and I have complete peace about this trip. We know that he's in the Lord's hands (as he always has been) and we're excited for him. He's going to have a great time with his friends, going into DC, and spreading his wings. I just hope he takes lots of pictures!!
Have a blessed day!

You're a good mommy! Not every parent realizes how very important these events are in the life of a child and how good it is for a child. He'll do great and have lots of fun.
