esther is over.

5 shows. 3 months. hundreds of hours.

i can't believe we're done. its really hard to understand.

you have to think really hard.

and then you get a little sad.

like, hey. i'm never gonna do this play ever again.

i'm not gonna see these people every day for three months in a row.

some of my favorite peoples ever are graduating.

and growing up.

and leaving.

but i've been thinking about other things too.

about how AMAZING God was to us these past few months.

about all the blessings he's given me.

time with old friends.

time with new friends.

people i never would have known.

but i'm so glad i do now :)

so many ways to learn and grow.

opportunities to improve.

chances to encourage.

lots of laughter. it's a gift from God.

and most importantly...

one of the most amazing opportunities to give my all to honor Him.

it really is all for Him.

so yes. i'm going to miss it. a whole bunch.

i'm going to miss my friends. a whole bunch.

i'm gonna miss late nights cleaning up in the dark.

early mornings listening to sleepy kids warming up.

pizza orders. walkie talkies. set changes. birthday cakes. mustaches.

but God said it best (surprise!)...

for everything there is a season.

and a time for every matter under heaven.
