Brandon's MBA program officially started on Thursday. He and I attended a welcome reception on Wednesday night where we met the other people in his program (30 total), faculty, staff, and other spouses/support people. It is a really unique and amazing program, and I am so proud of Brandon for going after this. I had an overwhelming sense of peace after hearing all about what the next two years will hold, knowing that this is exactly what Brandon needs to be doing. There is a large variety of people in the program...single, married, no kids, five kids...and they are really conscientious of spouses and families which eases my mind about time commitment.
The program started with a three day retreat in Boerne, so it has just been Jackson and mommy for the last few days. Brandon has checked in with us each day and seems to be really enjoying everything so far. Praise God for His provision in selecting the program and classmates for Brandon.
Jackson and I did our thing here at home and then spent most of the day yesterday with my sister's family. It was fun for Jackson to hang out with his cousins, and I was grateful to not spend the night alone at our place as well. We played, visited, watched the Olympics (my nephew is very inspired by Phelps), and just enjoyed our time there. Brandon finishes after lunch today and will be heading home. Jackson will be elated to see him...when my brother-in-law came home from work yesterday, Jackson heard a man's voice and just about jumped out of my arms with excitement...somebody misses his daddy! Hard to believe Jackson is 1 and Brandon is in grad school...life just keeps moving along whether I am ready or not!
