Just came back from a long relaxing walk through the woods, sometimes being alone can be noisy, my thoughts coming in so loud and clear that I can't enjoy the moment, not today, today I could think clearly. The sun is shining, I am far away from work, the trillium flowers are blowing I get to just be in the present. I thought I might get lost going through the woods, but I followed the path laid out and found my way back home to Heidi's.

My walk reminded me of last summers family trip to Newfie, long walks, lots of laughs and plenty of discovery. This picture shows the point near our cottage, when the tide is high, but if you wait awhile and time it just right you can walk out on the rocks and right around the point to the next beach our special spot with breath taking views and just the right amount of quiet.

The path we are on right now reminds me that there are great things around the bend, sights unseen, warm sunny spots and quiet walks, I just need to wait for the Lord, for His timing, and for Him to clear the path ahead.

Those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, my prayer for our whole family.

Okay Then

It has been so good to be here and to see Heidi, Sam. Ana and Zach. I know they will handle what ever comes their way.

That they have the heart and ear of the Most High God!
That they walk by faith and not by sight.
That they have a solid foundation.
That they are vulnerable not to the C word.
That Sam loves and cares for Heidi with incredible passion.
That Ana and Zach are seeing the Lord through their Mom and Dad every day.
That they are so blessed by a community of friends who are supporting them with prayer and meals.
That Heidi is amazingly living in the moment allowing God to strengthen her every day.
That we are blessed to all be completely held in our Lord's hands as a whole family.

God is good all the time!

Spring in Abbotsford?

Today was a quiet and restful Sunday, minus church ( which Zach was pleased about) and out for breakfast at ABC. I really missed Herm today, not being along with us, so we talked about you instead ( I know you are reading this:) Seems so weird being here without my other half. Ana and Zach each picked out another web kin, Zach a wombat named Tiny Tooth, and Ana a sheep dog named, Misty.

Went to Home Sense after breakfast, Heidi found some neat bedroom lamps and there are a few other items we will pick up for her space later in the week.

I read most of the afternoon, and finally dragged myself out for a walk late in the afternoon. It was cold, whoever said that spring is way earlier in BC than Ontario probably thought that no one would check up on it! I keep hoping for some sun and warmth but the weekly forecast is none to promising.

Rainy Days

This morning although the sky is grey, for the moment the rain has stopped. When they say it rains a lot in this part of the world they are not kidding!

Today we are off to train for the 5KM walk run that we registered in for next Sunday. I think Heidi and I may be staying back and doing a pared down training closer to home. We will definitely be out walking this week rain or shine so we are ready for the big day next week.
