Waiting

I’m not really that good at it. Waiting, that is.

It took a day and a half for the bank to counter offer and an hour for us to counter their’s. That was on Friday afternoon just before close of business and so we wait. I’ve managed to convince myself that I don’t care either way now. Whether we get this house or another one it doesn’t matter. All that matters is that we begin our new life in the house that God has for us so we can grab hold of that (the life) for which Christ grabbed hold of us.

Any house will be fine. The waiting though? Not so fine.

So what else is going on around here? Let me see… well, Kyle turns sixteen on Tuesday and…

I seriously can not think of anything else. This has been one truly boring summer except of course for the cross-country move. We’re still staying with friends and we still can’t wait to get out of their hair.

Life just seems to be on hold for a bit longer. And so I wait…

    Oh Lauren you’re back and I can call you by the right name! It was so strange calling you the other name but I wanted to abide by the rules. So glad to see you and your smiling face again ;o)

    Hang in there and know that God will provide the right house at just the right time!!

    Woot!!! You’re alive and doing well!!!

    Honey, everything is in God’s hands!! I’m so jealous that Texas got you and not the east coast, but that just means that God is in control, and NOT ME… WAAAA!

    Anyway, it is so good to read your writings again. I was beginning to worry… and I have been so busy that I’m just now getting around to catching up with blogs for over a week if not more…

    Just so you know, I think my domain name (or what ever it is called) is coming from Houston, TX. I already feel closer to you.

    I have missed you a ton, and have been thinking about you… Welcome back!

    Hugs and Kisses! Call me sometime!

    I love you, GiBee and what’s really cool is that even when we haven’t spoken is a while I know you still love me too. I’ll call you soon, promise!!!!
