Where, oh where has my little life gone?
The past week has been quite a whirlwind. After New Years, we had some sickness in the family, took down Christmas decorations, sent our 19yo back to work and school for 3 days then off to Mexico on a missions trip, got a burn permit (yippeee!!), began burning these enormous piles of stumps after calling most of the neighbors to warn them of the impending smoke in case they didn't know the ban had been lifted (or had asthma), planned and had two parties for Emma - one for friends and then one for family (see post below), tracking down D's passport which was sent out by Priority Mail instead of Express (even though we had paid for Express) and sweating whether it would arrive before our departure time on Wednesday, laundry and packing for us, dealing with the grief of loss of our friend's mother, hair appointments (can't go overseas looking like a shaggy dog in a muddy yard), cleaning up from farm helpers, party attendees and general family stuff, planning babysitters for our trip, and a few hours sleep stuck in here and there. Needless to say I am really looking forward to the relaxation part of our trip! I'll post details when we return. In the meantime, if you get a chance pray for our daughter's mission trip and her safety as well as comfort and peace for our friend Lindsey and her Dad as they grieve their loss. Thanks and Hasta la vista!!
