It’s crazy how life can change in a blink of an eye.

And it certainly has for our little family. It’s now going to be primarily you and me kid…

And we are going to be GREAT!! Daddy has decided that he no longer wants to be married to me or live with us, so our wonderful little family is experiencing some great sadness. But, as you will learn, God works His most amazing miracles at times we might perceive to be hopeless. As Aunti Judi said, we will just redefine “family” to be much more inclusive. You will have many Aunti’s and Uncles – fascinating, grounded loving people who will expose you to the beauty and challenges of life…. Want some examples? Aunti Liz, Uncle Michael, Aunti Kankana (all three doc students of mine), Uncle Jim from Gospel Choir, Aunti Brenda from Gospel Choir, Aunti Susan (Hannah’s Mommy), and so many more. We will open our homes and hearts to those who need our love and those who want to love us.

Your Daddy promises to always love you and be a very important part of your life. (I’m sure you know that by now.) Don’t you worry for even a minute about that. I know you’re going to have many questions, and we’ll try to figure out those answers together as we grow – at this point I understand neither the questions nor the answers… But that is what faith is all about. We’re gonna go with that. Before you were born Jonathon from Gospel Choir said, “You can’t stop trustin’ Him now, Sister. You can’t stop trustin’ Him now.” This is just one more time when that advice could not be more important.

Just imagine all the amazing adventures in store for us!! Want to take dancing together? And maybe French? Want to row a gondola in Italy? Want to snorkel in Belize? River raft in Brazil? Whatever it is – it will be amazing – because it will be with you. I love you Peanut Butter. Thank you for bringing so much JOY to my life…. EVERY SINGLE DAY!!

“Wait and Hope”
