This is the third time (in my 3 1/2 years!!!) of blogging that my blog has failed me. I love the therapeutic release of writing down my thoughts and the love and encouragement I receive from comments (well, when I get them...). Unfortunately, I can't quite articulate the emotions and thoughts I'm having. And, even if I could, the public-ness of the blog-o-sphere means I can't share words that are not mine to share.
We went to visit my parents and see my grandparents' new home this weekend (and visit my Papa in his inpatient rehab facility). It was nice to see family, but hard--I feel beaten down emotionally. I'll just say, my family is truly relying on the Lord's promise of peace and rest when we trust in Him.
Pictures of the fun times of the weekend are forth-coming.

I love you and love your family. I'm sorry all this is so hard...our family is a few years ahead of you in this phase of life, but take heart. There is a lot of joy in this phase...it just starts really hard, and there's no way to make it easier. Each family has to ford these waters, and they're different for each family, but the thread that runs throughout is, as you said, the reliance on the Lord's promise of peace and rest when we trust in Him. Your family...and their heritage...is one of trust in the Lord.
I'm glad you're letting your kids be part of the process. I've always believed there is great benefit in letting children live with us through all that happens. It opens their world to new questions, and is the Deuteronomy 6 lifestyle...to speak Godly things as we walk by the way, as we sit, as we go through our days.
Love you, dear ones! Like you did when you were young (I sure hope I still have some of your old letters!) feel free to do a private FB and let the thoughts roll.
