i can smell bacon. and i can hear the boys wrestling over whose turn it is to play whatever video game thingy they have set up, and i am cuddled up next to gracie in the guest room at my brother's house, she is snoring. I can hear my mom laughing about something....and I can't help but smile. I have a crazy, loud, funny, and incredibly frank family. and I love them.
we are getting to visit with each other before Andy is deployed to Iraq. He'll be gone for about 18 months. This is sad news. But, sad news we were prepared for.
Would you join me in praying for peace? Peace in Iraq, and all over the world. Peace in hearts and our homes.
I'm praying for the kind of peace Jesus came to give us and I'm rejoicing the gifts of family.
