Mixed Emotions

Kristen leaves in ten days and will be gone for 27 months. I'm a bag of mixed emotions. She is going to do what God has called her to do and for that, I am extremely proud. But I'm a mom and it's hard to let go. Kristen will be 25 years old in a couple of months and has lived at home all but the one semester she went to school out-of-state. Sometimes I am happy for her, that she is moving on with her life with a passion and a purpose. Sometimes I just want her to be an "average" American girl and get a good job here (close to home), get married, and have babies.....grandbabies for ME!
