keeping in together

so much going on this week. K & J looking for house, they thought they found "the one" but too many bids on it and the sellers are waiting to see who bids the highest. A bit frustrating but that means there is a better house out there for them.
C & B -- yeah -- they are the reason I'm holding my breath all the time. Geez! They really want to move to Texas thinking that is where their future lies.
I'm so doubtful about that. I'm trying to be supportive, trying to be a good parent, but my gut tells me that it's just NOT the right move for them. We'll see when we go there in November and look around. Hopefully they will see that the grass is not greener. But who am I to stop them? This is their life path to pursue (good or bad). As mothers, do we ever stop trying to pick up our children when they fall (figuratively)? I just want a clear path for them. It's so hard to stand by and watch them make a mistake. But is it a mistake? Again, who am I to say?

So I pray - for guidance and for acceptance. I think that's one of the hardest things we do as humans, accept & then move on.
