Summary

As Mona and Ken Sorensen approach the best years of their lives, Mona's greatest concern is that Ken will learn of the surprise party she's planning for his retirement from his job as Dean of Students at Stone University. But things begin to unravel when Ken learns that office politics are about to destroy his department. Meanwhile, Mona is eager to build her event planning business, but rather than support her, Ken expresses concern that the stress will send her back into the depression she struggles with. Then, just days before Ken's last official day of work, their son, a Special Forces officer in the Army, learns he's being immediately deployed on a six-month mission in Pakistan. Since his wife left him, the only people he trusts to care for his two young children are his parents. In an instant, everything Ken and Mona spent their lives planning changes. This is not the second half they wanted, and when their son fails to contact them as planned, they struggle to trust that it is God's plan, not theirs, that matters most
