B.J.’s life trip

Debbie and I just returned from seeing B.J. (our oldest son) pull away in a Budget truck loaded with all of his belongings to his new home in California. It’s a 3 or 4 day trip, depending on how fast that truck can go on the downhills. We smiled, we wiped back tears, we laughed and we sat quietly on our couch for a half an hour in silence. We love our kids. We were “family focused” before James Dobson was. Our kids and family are our inner circle. His best friend Clint Hudson and he are driving that trip. Loryn, his wife will fly out to meet them. I thought about Clint and B.J.’s trip, for Clint it’s a road trip, for B.J. it’s a life trip. He’s always had  goals, prayed about and mapped out a direction and acted on his dreams. Today was no different.  We love that boy and respect the way he has chosen to live his life and his dreams.

    BJ and Loryn, I am thrilled for you both. It isn’t everyday that young couples your age get to follow their dreams. This is wonderful. God is so good! Take care, be safe and stay close to our Lord. He will lead you in an awesome directions, for He knows the plans He has for you. Blessings!

    BJ and Loryn made an incredible impact on the lives of the high schoolers they worked with over the last few years. We are thankful for their Godly love, dedication, support and listening ears they provided for our daughters.
    God Bless them on their journey.
    BJ and Loryn, maybe that H2O4K trip to Tiger, GA in the Penske truck with Mr. Gerkin was not without a purpose….”experience”. Hopefully Clint has navigational experience. We love you and we are praying for you!
