A Day Full of Toil, Prayers and Elation

[GraceReclaimed Full Blog Here] 
As I toiled away the day trying to decide whether to

Open the GraceReclaimed Christmas Trunk or Not...

 

I found myself extremely distracted, my head and heart full of thought and prayers about something much more important!

 

You see this was the day my youngest,

Garrison was anxiously waiting to find out if he would become part of

Phi Gamma Delta at SHSU. 

When he first mentioned that he was considering a fraternity at Sam;

it was with great hesitation his father and I accepted the fact that he would spend more time than we would like to imagine pledging and working toward being accepted into this family of young men. 

Since neither of us were a part of this kind of thing in our college days, you know...Eons ago; we were somewhat clueless about the extent of commitment required. 

But we reminded ourselves, when something is important to Garrison, there is usually no stopping him.  He is headstrong, hardworking and loyal to a fault.   Obviously qualities that make for a good Phi Gamma Delta brother!

 

 Because, He’s in! Hallelujah, I think!

 

 

So excited for this guy and his drive to be a part of something bigger than himself!

 

Congratulations GARRISON Lee Shaw…

Now can I buy you flannel instead of chubbies???

Gracefully proud and praying this is part of God’s awesome plan for him!!!  Mom (B)
