Theme of the month

Remembering.

This month feels like it has been a year long. There's just too much that has happened for it to be possible it's only been four short weeks.

After about 6 months of searching, my wife and I finally found a house! We're preparing to close next week, just two weeks ahead of my wife's due date. My family is about to see two massive changes in under a month, our lives will never be the same. We're entering a new season of sleepless nights, new joy and possibilities. But, we're also saying goodbye to a long season of frenetic searching and stress. God was with us through every step of the seasons that led us here, and he will continue to be.

I've been looking back. I wanted to see, with hindsight, the ways that God's hand has been on our lives. He guided the sale of our old home, gave us a great relationship with our parents so that we had somewhere to stay, protected us from homes that wouldn't have been a good fit for our family, and kept us (mostly) sane though the process. This side of the journey my faith is stronger, even if I wouldn't want to do it again.
