I remember the day he was born so vividly...born to the opening music of
sports center 19 years ago. Today we packed our friends van, as well as
Jordan's SUV, and moved him to college!!
I will give you one guess who mad mixed feelings about her big brother
moving.
Curtis was excited to get him moved and settled in yet knowing he is really
going to miss him! Curtis was even more excited when we pulled into Jordan's
new dorm and found there were close to 20 volunteer students who MOVED
EACH STUDENT in! Yes, you read that right, like they carried every, single,
thing that we brought with us up to his room! Though I have always known
IWU is a Christ centered university with a mission to serve others and change
the world, I have to say this left us all speechless!
I just keep telling myself he's only an hour away and I'm taking him to work
with me as he is attending the awesome university in which I teach and
serve; some days that works better than others.
He is stocked with plenty of caffeine as a well as a big screen for the games
throughout the year!
I'm so thankful she is adaptable to whatever situation we are in! God
definitely blessed her with this!
Patrick was so helpful giving us ideas of how to get Jordan's bed, and his
roommate "T's top bunk, to fit in one of the two rooms. Thank you for all
your help Patrick!
Mission accomplished and Jordan's bed is made and all put together...you just
can't see it behind them:)
You may be moving to college but I'm not letting you go!
The fridge and the big screen! Yes, he has all of his books, folders, MAC, etc
too:)
You totally need to notice the salsa on the bottom shelf! Jordan was born on
cinco de mayo and his favorite food in the entire world is chips and salsa!
We had the wonderful pleasure of meeting "L" last night who is a freshman
and also attending IWU. Her family had already started their drive home so
she ran errands with us last night, went to dinner and then was hanging out
with Jordan when we left. It made leaving him much easier knowing he was
spending time with such an incredible friend!! We know God has amazing
plans for you this year Jordan and we couldn't be more proud of the young
man you have become!
