DECEMBER 4TH ~ DIRECTION

Today is Saturday.  Long gone are the days of sleeping in on Saturdays for me.  I loooove to sleep, but I also loooove to do.  I’ve had my good share of sleeping, and now I’m really enjoying doing – especially working for myself and calling all the shots.

As it turns out, Saturday morning sleep-ins are also not in my teenage son’s schedule, even now that his high school football season and Saturday morning game films are done.  He has somewhere to be on Saturday mornings.  Not only does he have to be somewhere, but he has to spit and polish his boots, be clean-shaven and dress in uniform.  He’s an Explorer with the LA County Fire Dept., and we are so thankful to our neighbors for pointing us in that direction.

Having direction can be a wickedly elusive thing, especially when you’re at one of life’s crossroads.  Parents: a point in any reasonable direction, coupled with a little nudge to get rolling, goes a long way in my opinion.

My wish today is for all teenagers to be blessed with some direction as they make their choices and move forward in life.
