Day 1
That number looks so very lonely – happily lonely, of course.
As I type, five members of my family should be on a British Airways plane at Jomo Kenyatta Airport getting reading to take off. Their scheduled departure is in 5 minutes. Dad & the boys will arrive in the States tomorrow (!!), while Mom & Em will spend an extra day in London to see Les Miserables and take in some of the sights (or maybe get some sleep). And in 48 hours, I’ll be flying, meeting Mom & Em at the Philly airport where Luke will pick us three up.
It feels unreal, writing those words. Like my mom told me in an email last week – they’re “just words” now, but reality will hit soon enough.
Pretty amazing.
Psalm 144:15b “How blessed are the people whose God is the LORD!”
He is my God, and I am so blessed.
