It occurred to me this morning that we have begun the first of the “lasts”.  This morning, we walked our oldest two daughters to their first day of school at Archer City ISD for the last time.  This brought forth some emotion as the reality of our pending move to the mission field is starting to really hit home.

Olivia will have her last first day of pre-K tomorrow.

Last week we had the last meet the teacher night at Archer City ISD.

Next week will be the last opening day of dove season for a while.

These are only the beginning of the “lasts”, and will no doubt bring forth more emotion.  Vicki and I both know that while our time in Archer City may be short, our lives on earth are short as well.  While these times may be difficult and bring about sadness, we know that we have been called to the mission field.

Soon we will be done with the “lasts” and will get to begin the “firsts” in Uganda.  We can’t wait to share those firsts with you when we get to experience them.
