Ok...update on Friday's Blog! Nick got a call on Saturday that simply said his girl is no longer interested. It seems as though she (or her best friend) feels my son is a bit immature for her. That totally kicked Nick in the stomach.
You see, as you might have picked up - Nick is a romantic and loves the idea of being in love. So much so, he has a tendency to rush into something more than what the situation actually is at times.
Thankfully, he sought us out after he got the call and just wanted to talk. Didn't necessarily want me to fix anything, just listen. After listening, I told him my thoughts of him wanting to be in love. Surprisingly, he agreed. Said it was really hard because it just seems so great sometimes and then all the sudden...BAM...you are just not mature enough. Which, btw - Nick totally disagrees with. He was quite offended at her take of who he is.
I reminded him of a verse in the Bible -
Proverbs 4:23 Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.
We talked about being so willing in giving his heart to 'just anyone'. That it is to be guarded and protected for the right time. His heart was made to love. To love God, family, others, and someday a beautiful bride who will return his love.
For now....the girl missed out on a great date! That's all I have to say about that.

Momma knows! And I second your..She missed out on a great date.
You are so preparing your sons and their hearts for "the other woman". How blessed your sons and their future brides will be. Thanks for sharing your life and wisdom. You are a beautiful woman of God. I pray the Lord will always keep you mindful of how he is using you to bless others!
