Son-in-law Dan leaves soon for East Africa. Follow his adventures on the Lahash.net website. I always get a little nervous when he makes his semi-annual visit to the partners in Africa. After all, I have a daughter and grand-daughter remaining behind. I'm always glad when he returns safe. I know he is in God's hands so I keep reminding myself of that. When our children were small it was nice when they were all at home in the nest. Now they travel on a whim. Do they ask my permission? No. Should they? No. I felt in greater control when they were young. I know, my feelings of control were an illusion. I keep reminding myself of that. With every stage of life comes renewed commitment to God. I suppose when I am 95 they will worry about me.
