... being alone with the boys, while packing the house for a week
... tyler's flight being cancelled, leaving me to drive to KC alone with the
boys
... trusting my husband completely and wholly as he signed a lease on a
house without me being able to see it first
... living out of a cooler for 6 days as we quickly discovered how "reliable"
our new landlord is
... overwhelmed as i see boxes and boxes that need unpacked, but having
2 boys who need my attention even worse
... battling a high fever with Cohen (102-105degrees), plus an ear infection
... realizing that i have my hands full with a house that needs a lot of love
... a "to do" list for our landlord full of things that need fixed, including
water constantly dripping into our basement, and stair railings that
are 7 inches apart {huge safety issue with the boys}
...I am filled with joy.
... family close by
... completely content, not "wanting"
... peace, despite chaos all around
... a hard working family who would give anything to help us
... blessed to have shelter and a place to be together
... grateful for blessing after blessing
... friends that are so excited to see us and welcome us back
... a safe neighborhood with a little park next door
Life is good. We are blessed. Thankful. Grateful.
And so very happy.
So freaking happy for you guys! Everything will come together. But you're here. You're BACK! I seriously cannot wait to meet you and the boys. Soon, okay? I think Landon and Jaxon are going to be good buddies :)
ReplyDeleteI felt a panic attack starting as I read this! I have so been there but also remember the peace and contentment you spoke of as well. Just take baby steps. One box at a time. One room at a time.
ReplyDeleteSo happy you're back "home"! Debbie
I love you girl! and I love that you have had your prayers answered. God is so good, isn't he! Praying for Cohen. Praying for you!
