On my way to the gym this morning, I looked up and saw an eagle flying overhead. It flew across the road and I lost sight of it as it flew over my car. It seemed to follow along above me for awhile before heading off to do what it was going to do.
For me it was a real comforting sign from God that all will be okay.
I have an amazing daughter, but she is a normal 16 year old and as much as I love her, I still want to shake her sometimes. Those times when you just do not know the best way to handle a situation, you think you have made the right decision, but it does not seem to work out the way you thought it would, it is nice to get a sign, some kind of assurance that it will all work out. Perhaps I have done something right and haven't totally messed my kids up.
With all that is going on, I was talking to my husband the other night and I said I would rather raise an eagle than a chicken. (There is a history behind that comment that I won't go into now.)
So even though there are days when I look forward to it and days when I don't want it happen, it's going to be beautiful to watch her fly.
