Day 10: Maybe Rob Thomas is right...

Today was an incredible day simply because of its sheer, mundane normalcy.  I woke up.  I took care of the animals.  I taught school.  I paid bills.  I went to the post office.  I checked in on my grandma.  I bought groceries.  I corrected schoolwork.  I made dinner.  I played a game with my kids (again!).  I did dishes. And I didn't cry, not even once!  In short, I had a perfectly awesome, boring, normal day!

All that normalcy got me to thinking about the lyrics to Rob Thomas's "Little Wonders" (you know, the song that nearly caused a meltdown in the supermarket).  The song begins with

"Let it go...let it roll right of your shoulder...don't you know...the hardest part is over..."

And maybe Rob's right -- maybe the hardest part is over.

I know that it has only been 10 days since we began this journey, and Rob and I could be wrong, but I truly believe that the hardest part is over.  And I can honestly say, with a reasonable degree of certainty, that the light at the end of the tunnel is NOT a train!  And I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that God IS good!

Thank you all for your support, your prayers, and your encouragement.  We are truly blessed!
