My oldest daughter is living many hundreds of miles from us and we miss her so much. She included this note to me in her box filled with Christmas presents for us. Since I wrote about Gingerbears today, I asked her if I could put a copy of her letter on my blog today. When I read it, tears came to my eyes. Not just sad tears because I miss her but tears that come from mothers when they are just so proud of their children and so happy to be a mother.

Waaah! Not sure how I"m going to handle the leaving-the-nest years.
Beautiful letter.

They are difficult years but the Lord prepares us gently. With computer IM's and phone calls its not as bad as it was when I first left home many many years ago
