Home!

Back home in Colorado! I'm so excited to be "home." I went to my old place of work at the local hospital--where I will now be working again. I felt joy at being in a familiar hospital with familiar faces and landscape. I hugged everyone that I knew really hard. The husband and I are renting a one-bedroom apt in Broomfield. It is such a luxury to have our own place and that our home is not on wheels! We don't have to empty the black tanks every week anymore! The kitchen is large for an apartment. I have baked bread and made cake. The cake being for Jon's half-birthday today. =) A special tradition started by his mother. Other joys are the swimming pool, my large laundry room, and lots of storage space. The best part of course is being with Jon and not having to call him to see what he is doing! There is just something about being together even when no one is talking. He welcomed me home with flowers and a new drawing pad! Oh, and I also have room to set up my sewing machine. There is lots of organization to do, but I'm trying to take one day at a time!

I like this picture because of the crack in the rocks. We live in a broken world, yet Jesus brings beauty to the cracks and broken pieces--even when our hearts are split down the middle. I am learning hope and that there is *always* a solution or a way out. Blessings on your week!
