A new chapter begins for Jessica

I have a feeling that my life is entering a new phase, but it is not me that is beginning a new chapter but my daughter, Jessica.  She is moving to North Carolina this week to prepare to enter Dude University and begin three years in seminary.

Jen and Josh will leave this afternoon to help Jessica and River move Jessica's belongings from her apartment to new lodgings in Durham.  Josh and River will drive a truck while Jen and Jessica will keep pace in Jessica's car.  The trip will require an overnight stay along the way.

I know it is trite to remark how fast time goes  by. It seems only a few weeks since we moved Jessica into a freshman dorm at LSU.  She did outstanding at university and will perform as well during those three years at Duke.  North Carolina is farther than Baton Rouge, but a consolation is that Mark and Julie and the grandchildren live only about 30 minutes from where Jessica will share an apartment with another student.
