Tonight, Drew really didn't want to go back...it almost seems that it is harder to continue when you have a relaxing and "normal" weekend at home, as opposed to the stressful homework packed weekends. Most of the drive back to the Academy I was quizzing him on some terms for EVOC (Emergency Vehicle Operations Course), he is really nervous about knowing them word for word...but he knows them. He just needs to be confident enough that he doesn't freak himself out and forget them. It was hard leaving tonight...I watched him walk down the hallway and into his room. It's a weird feeling. Wanting him to come home so I don't have to go home alone...but knowing I have to ignore that and actually act like I WANT him to go back, so that he has NO inclination whatsoever that he needs to come home. It's sort of a lonely feeling.
SO! Once again, God is my company the WHOLE long drive home (ok, it's really not that long, but it feels like it when you're alone and it's dark). I was praying over Drew and his week ahead, and over our finances. We really haven't had much money since BEFORE the Academy started (mid-July!!!) and we have to hang on until the end of this week, Friday is payday. It will be our first full-sized paycheck...so hopefully Drew will feel more confident that his hard work is paying off once that comes.
