Third Grade








I am not sure what I think about concerning updating the blog after Will is gone but I figure those who will still be checking will be praying. Will and I had planned a trip to India with my older sister in CA to see my younger sister Gail graduate from high school. She did a wonderful job and has become a beautiful lady. She won awards for being the most sporty and 'school colors' which meant she represented what Hebron school stood for. She loves he Lord and she looked out for those younger than her. Gail did a good job being away from her family continuing to trust that God would protect and love her as she reached out to others.
It was a long but good trip. We returned to CA and I spent a few days with my grandparents and then some with Lynn and Abigail. She is growing up. This may be some of the more difficult parts of loosing Will. I feel like my world has still stopped as I look for him around the house and think that just maybe I will see him sometime when I am out. Airports are excruciating. I know he is gone but it stops my heart to see another pilot thinking it might be him.

So I am home. In our home. There are hard and good things about being in Kansas, the state that he loved. It was the real heartland to him. This week I will be working at Vacation Bible School at church. Third graders will make up my group and I know the Lord has plans and good things for those who love him but I have never not understood more what those plans are, so prayers, just prayers for good days and grace and whatever else you can think of would be appreciated. I don't understand much these days but just keep putting one foot in front of another. It's a ton harder without Will by my side but just one day at a time. Thank you for your continuing prayers. I know those in third grade thank you as well.

Your name remains on my fridge, just in case I forget. It seems I don't need it there, though; for memories of your sweet smile and thoughts of your current heartache often cross my mind. Prayers for you continue to be lifted from our home daily.

Much love,
Kristie
