I just signed Julie up to start drivers ed next week. Now that is a sobering new phase, even though I've been thru this twice before.
Steven will be leaving in about a week for cedar campus. and he is trying to get the things ready for the bike trip he is planning with his buddies for August
Mark is trying to get his mothers house cleared out so we can rent it, not the easiest thing to do since it is nearly 100 miles away. We have to figure out what to do with all the stuff in it, a whole household full of furniture, housewares, books and the other things of living. This is the house he was raised in, and his father built. so even if we aren't selling yet, there must be some sense of loss.
And then there is the usual work, meals, meetings and daily activities. Even though these are all very mundane things, I wonder often how one gets through it all without the strength of the Lord

What a very nice entry. Kind-a-fun having a little window into your daily lives!
c.s.lewis calls it "the test of domestic life" - how we handle the weariness that comes from dealing with the relentless demands of ordinary life. just daily reminders of how much we need to rely on God.
