We feel that this is where Max is suppose to be at this time in his life. Sometime in April, Danny mentioned that Max should graduate early and go to college. At the time I shrugged it off and I think I even said, "no". A few weeks later Danny and Max started talking about it more seriously and asked what I thought about it. I still wasn't sure of the idea. I had in my mind plans of his Senior year of HS, playing Varsity Volleyball and watching him graduate... and I had a few fears. Is he ready? Will he remember to take his medicine? I'll have to unlock his phone!... I still wasn't for sure on board, it sounded scary. But I started praying about it. I asked Heavenly Father if it was the right path for Max to go to college and graduate HS early that it all just work out. If it be the right choice for him at this time in his life that it will happen...I continued to pray that way and everything worked out better than I could imagine.
He did well on his ACTs, he was able to get his GED, he got accepted to BYU-Idaho, he was actually accepted Winter/Spring and I called and asked if he could go fall/winter and they had no problem with the change. At first we worried that he wouldn't get into the apt. complex as his cousin Zachary because you can't get housing until you get into the college. Max was on the waitlist and then after he got accepted to BYU-I the apt. complex had an opening in Zach's apartment! When each door opened it was like the Lord was telling me yes, yes, yes this is the right path for Max!
I know the Lord was helping Max all along and that this is where he's suppose to be. When people ask me if I'm sad or how I'm doing I just feel so happy that he's there and really feel this is where he's suppose to be that I feel so blessed and happy for him!
