no place like home

You may remember that back in September my parents lost their home to a fire. You can read about it here. Well, it's been a long, cold winter but progress is being made! The contractor says they could be in by June/July. I've never known anyone to move in when the contractor says, but that's encouraging none the less. They could be settled in by the time our Little Man arrives and before Brynnie walks down the aisle in October.

It has been a very difficult year for my family. Though they moved into a rental home soon after the fire, you never really feel settled. satan has tried to destroy relationships, tried to make us focus on what we don't have instead of what we do and tried to plant the seed of doubt about whether or not our God is control. But he has FAILED. Miserably. God continues to show his faithfulness to my family and we continue to grow closer together. 2010 ended with news of a marriage and a baby. We have total confidence that God works all things for good for those who love him and are called according to His purpose.
