Our new students have arrived on campus. There is execitement in the air – because of the new students as well as the excitement that the new students bring. I have never seen students so excited to move in and make their beds. The past few days have been fun to watch them move in and interact with each other.
It seems that every event that we’ve done shows us so much about who they are and really who their family is. Amidst the excitement and exhiliration, I have been able to see the family stuff that each each student brings. You can think of them as full tuitions – as students – as young minds that have no idea what’s coming up. I watch them come, but one of the things that really caught me off guard this year was when they left. I recently posted about a beautiful love – seeing so many families say goodbye.
One thing that I realize (because I’m thinking through thoughts to blog) is this idea that with the hundreds of new students on campus – that they just bring their family “stuff” with them. Some of it I’ll get to deal with. Much of it they display for all to see. Some will keep it secret and will never share their family “stuff” which really tells you alot about who they are and maybe a little about their family. No matter where you go or what you do – you bring your family with you.
