This week we are experiencing a lot of finality. Last day of junior high for Emma, last day of elementary for Eliot and last day of kindergarten for Daniel. Sunday will be our last Lord’s day to
worship at Peace until we come back to visit. With so many lasts it’s refreshing to have a
first! For Christmas my mom wrote
a story and gave a copy to each of her grand kids. This past weekend she attended a writer’s conference for the
first time and even entered her story into a competition. For the first time…she WON said
writer’s competition! We aren’t
entirely sure exactly what that means but one of the judges wants her to turn
it into a novel and help her get an agent. So exciting!
I’m proud of my mom’s story and I’m so proud she won but
mostly I’m proud that my sweet Mama tried something new at the young age of
60.
Awesome. And if Mama needs a lawyer to review her contracts, I know where she can get one inexpensively.
