I’ll spare you the details, but suffice it to say eventually the nagging voice got the better of me. Emotions ran high, and several tears and panic attacks later, Kirk and I decided to do the hard work and make some difficult changes so that we could reach our full potential – as individuals, as a couple, and as a FAMILY. So today, I find myself wondering – awestricken, really – at the way God has blessed me with the opportunity to find my way back to my husband, back to my family, back “home” and back to Him so that Kirk and I can begin to write our story our way.

Maddy and Julia enjoying "Movie Night" (f/4, 1/30 sec, ISO 3200, then used the Pioneer Woman Vintage action) |
Tonight’s chapter was a good one. Everyone was happy through dinner, and Maddy even asked for seconds of everything on her plate – fried fish filets, peas and beets. (Growth spurt, I’ll betcha!) Then we popped some popcorn, dimmed the lights, turned our living room into a “movie theater,” and settled in together to watch Care Bears. Maddy and Julia sat side by side, engrossed in the Care Bears’ latest adventure, munching on popcorn and Skittles, each of them enjoying the company of their very best friend. I pray, my sweet, beautiful girls, that you remain best friends for all your lives.
Tonight I’m counting my blessings (big, small and in-between), and my blessings are truly a wonder!
