Oh, friends, today was the hardest day we’ve had yet…
There wasn’t a major crisis, I think reality is just setting in for all of us.
I am reminded in this day, though, that the Lord is near. He is right here with me, walking me through this time and I am so thankful for His presence.
I am also reminded of how blessed we are. We have friends, we are staying busy with wonderful activities, and we’re looking forward to beginning a new homeschool year soon.
We have much to be thankful for even as our hearts long for Keith to be home.
Here are the blessings I am counting this week…

Those tricky days will come and go but He will be with you :). Looks like you’ve had some great times this week – wish we had a Stitch Fix service in England :(. A library sale is ALWAYS good news though! Blessings.
