We are doing very well...our area was hit mostly by heavy rain & 50-70mph winds. Power was out but we now have it back (many area homes are still w/out). A few days w/out what we might call "normal" things has made me quickly remember how blessed we are. We complain b.c. we must wait 2 hours for gas in our cars, but some don't have cars at all. No power for 4 days, when some go a lifetime w/out electricity or even a consistent place to call home. We are beyond blessed, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to acknowledge & be thankful for that.
"Do not store up yourselves treaures on earth where moths and rust destroy, and thieves break in & steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven...for where your treasure is, there your heart will be." matthew 6:19-21
Avery had an adventurous & memorable 1st birthday! I'll post pictures soon.
