What. A.
Week. It. Has. Been. God has been teaching me so much. Some of it has been
exciting. Some of it has been so, so painful. But I am thankful that in the
painful, I’m finding that I immediately turn to the Lord for help, and He is
faithful! (Also, significant props to Ryan for cleaning up a lot of tears this
week.)
Want to
see just a fraction of what we’ve been up to over the last few days?
Last Sunday we took communion at church, and I had the
sweetest time with the Lord that morning ahead of communion. I had shared this
with our deacons a few weeks ago and wanted to revisit it myself before
participating. It was a really meaningful time.
Our house projects march on, and my favorite part of
this week was getting to put our bedroom back together. We got a new quilt for
it. The one we had was five years old and between a geriatric cat and a puppy,
it had taken quite a beating. I love this one so much!
One of my days this week started at 3 a.m. and went
until about 11:00 p.m. Whew! I had to be in Fort Wayne for a church member’s
surgery at 5 a.m. and then I went to the 4H parade that night with Ryan and our
small group. It was a long and full day, but it was memorable in good ways.
This was a week of family! My sister and
brother-in-law came to visit, and in a rare event, our entire family (minus
grandchildren/great-grandchildren) gathered for dinner at our house. We ate
pizza, went for a boat ride, and of course, had a family picture taken!
I took my first try at driving the boat this week. I literally
just drove it in the middle of the lake. No taking off or parking it. That’s
for advanced students. I’m still a rookie. 😊
Ryan was in the Swiss Days parade yesterday! I have decided that going to a parade alone is not any fun, but I was proud of myself for going, and it was fun to see him enjoying representing Swiss Village with friends and residents! (Also: parades + thunderstorms + Bekah = interesting.)
