The kids and I came home yesterday afternoon. We opened all the doors and windows and let the last of the fumes from the hardwood floor finish escape and then we all settled into our own beds for a good night's sleep. Even though Grandma and Grandpa gave us the royal treatment for five days, we were all glad to be HOME.
Matt stayed at his mom and dad's for one more night so that he could study for his six hour long test on computer security, which he is taking as I type. Basically, the course was the equivalent of a fifteen credit course squeezed into one week. The test is comprised of nothing but "right" answers, but only one answer to each of the questions is the "best" answer. The kids and I have been praying for Daddy at intervals throughout the morning.
Yesterday on the way to church, our resident "this day in history" person, Elizabeth, reminded all of us that exactly one year ago we moved into our house. When I look back over the year and all that the Lord has done in our family, I am awestruck. The Lord has taken our meager attempts of obedience and service to Him and transformed them into a tapestry of grace that He continues to weave. Someday, at the Big Reveal, we will see a beautiful work of art crafted by the Divine Weaver--and all for His glory.
