5 months

We've been in IBESR for 5 months now. Count them....1...2...3...4...5. Since September 12, 2012. The average time frame in IBESR is 6 months. I had so hoped and prayed to be "better than average". I hate average.

I guess at this point, my prayer should be to please, please make us average! :)

The past few weeks have been hard. Work changes and uncertainty, heartache for family members and church members, illness, and a longing from my soul to hold my boys close have weighed heavily on me.

Lord, help me remember today and everyday until they're home:

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.~~Romans 8:28
