exodus

It began five years ago...
our oldest... going to college...
three years later... the middle one left...
two years after... today...  we moved the youngest out... and off...

For everything there is a season,

and a time for every matter under heaven:

...a time to plant,and a time to pluck up what is planted...

...a time to weep, and a time to laugh...

...a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing...

Ecclesiastes 3:1-2, 4-5

ESV

Letting go... the point of the exercise...
