The summer comes quick in Georgia. The boys were out of school by the end of May. The first day of summer camp, hosted by our church, began and ended in a whirlwind. It's so hard to believe that they've been gone for a whole month. I've done my best to make progress during this month while they spend time with their dad. Missing them tremendously. My time has been occupied with moving, painting, cleaning, unpacking, organizing...everything that goes with moving (before and afters for another post).
Making home for my boys. There are so many things we do together that I've missed this summer. Our bedtime ritual, I love reading to them. I picked up two new novels we haven't read yet. The novels are stacked on the nightstand in their room. Waiting. My boys don't know what the house looks like; I wanted it to be a surprise for them. We have prayed, the three of us, for God to bless us with a home. I've been actively looking for an entire year now, teeter-tottering between buying and renting, renting and buying. To say that this has been an exhausting process is putting it lightly. It has been a lot of unexpected work, but so much joy has gone in to preparing this place that God has provided for us. I cannot wait for my little men to see it and for us to enjoy it together. Thank you, Lord, for your faithfulness to provide our needs.

My silly monkeys...I can't wait to see you, hug you and squeeze you tight! I love you so much.
