I don't know about where you are, but it is so incredibly hot here. Like the kind of heat where the breeze when you ride the windows down does not even provide relief. Like the kind of heat where the air conditioner (thank you Jesus for air conditioners) can't keep up. Like the kind of heat where the swimming pool is even hot. I know people are tired of hearing about heat, but it is dangerously hot with no rain and no relief in sight. Thankfully, our Lord has a plan and provides relief for us from all situations in HIS time.
I have had to remind myself of this today. HE has a plan and it is in HIS time....not my own.
It has already been a super busy summer. The girls went on a trip with grandparents, Audrey went to band camp last week, and she is at a worship arts camp this week. We travel next week but they will be home for a few weeks after that. It seems as though this summer is flying by. Wow! I'm so not ready for school to be starting back up but it will be here before we know it. When does life slow down?
Time to count my blessings....Cory got a promotion and will eventually change roles and schedules. This will mean having him home on a more regular schedule, and this has not happened in our 15 years of marriage. Super excited about that! We have healthy, happy girls who are such a joy. We have air conditioners (have I mentioned that I am SO thankful for this? I'm a wimp in the heat.). We have some family time coming up in 36 days....yes, 36....I have a countdown thing on my phone. That's how excited I am!
It's amazing how cathartic it can be to blog. I started out with all of these heavy, intensely personal issues on my heart and mind. But, as I write, I realize that I have so much to be thankful for. I looked back and read, and this whole blog seems to be struggle....thankful....menu.....kids.....struggle....thankful....menu.....kids....and so on. Maybe I should get a life and live a little! lol
