Well it's been about a year since Paige moved back in with us. In this passed year she's learned how to play guitar, helped ALOT around the house, been Aunt Paige to the kids, she had a full-time job at Ace Hardware, saved up some money, got enrolled in NCTC College here in Bowie for the fall, and we thought she was going to live with us for at least another year, or two, while she went to school... but, this Saturday, she is moving out, and moving to Bandera, Texas, to be a ranch-hand... she says it's her dream job, and she is thrilled... so please keep Paige in your prayers as she moves away from everyone she knows...pray for her to thrive, and be happy, and LOVE this new place she is moving to... and pray for us to not worry ourselves sick about her... I am beside myself... as hard as it was having a grown woman live in our already full-house, ...I still wanted her to be successful; wanted to help her grow up, and have a good start; wanted to help support her while she figured out what she wanted to do; but as I said, she is grown (20-yrs-old), and has to make her own decisions... it's just so hard watching someone who has the world at her fingertips, be happy to give all that up... I love her, and don't want to see her come back in a few months regretting what she has chosen; not to mention how bad we will all miss her...
so, I'm letting her go, trying hard not to tell her what I REALLY THINK...
