A Month of Transitions

The end of July brought us our county fair, which ushered in the month of August. This is glorious news, as August heralds in fall - at least in my opinion. School supplies are in the stores, and I even saw a magazine at the grocery store about Halloween treats! And I think this year, August is going to move quickly.

Our performances of the melodrama, Sew What?!, have finished. I will be editing my manuscript, once I get it back from my publisher. (Believe it or not, I am quite excited about that - even though, I am sure to be overwhelmed!) We'll have a weekend away, some company who will visit, and then school starts. September will be here before we know it!

I plan to fully enjoy every moment of fall this year. It's such a wonderful season! And I can't think of a better way to spend August. It's always been my least favorite month, simply because it seems to drag. Not much is going on (usually) and it makes for a long month. But not this year!

August will see my son transition into first grade, my daughter into her second year of preschool, and me into a published author! It's a really exciting time for our family. I just pray that God will continue to be at the center of all we do - and it's He who remains true; we are the ones who move away. Hopefully, we'll remember that we experience these changes for His glory.
