"Be at rest once more, O my soul, for the Lord has been good to you." Psalm 116
We have been busy finishing up the school year.....saying good-bye to preschool for Lucy, wonderful teachers for Loftin and Lucy and Mary Graham's amazing therapists. I am not one to cry much at endings, but this year, with all its ups and downs (mostly with MG and spending nearly 7 weeks in the hospital), has been so good for each of my children and it had such a happy ending for each of them. So I was sad to see it end, maybe a little fearful of starting over again in September with new teachers, new therapists, new schools and on and on.
These are a few pictures to share from the last several weeks...everyone is doing well. And Mary Graham just seems happier and healthier than ever, making more progress with her walker.
So now, bring on summer. Hence the other title of this post "chaos." We are going to be traveling some, swimming lots and doing some rennovations to our house (meaning we are moving everything out of our house, living various places, mostly with my parents....yes, chaos). So, I will probably be out of touch in updates for a while.
I was a little worried to post, as life seems to be so calm for us right now. The verse above says it perfectly.....for once, and it seems like its been a very long time, my soul is at rest. So many fears, anxiety and weariness have washed over us these last two years and now....a season of rest.
Of course we don't know what tomorrow will bring, but we will remain thankful for this season and maybe this season of rest will give us more clarity of God's hand when we face storms again. We return to Philly in August for another expansion surgery. We feel so blessed.
