42 Days

It's been 42 days since my last post.


In 42 days, I have been a wife and mother everyday. I have loved, given hugs and kisses, advice and praise. I've said "thank you" and "I'm sorry". I have made breakfast, lunch and dinners. I have worked and been tired and exhausted but happy and satisfied. My baby girl turned 4 years old, my baby boy has been trying to form words so badly and you can tell it is completely frustrating to him that he cannot tell mommy and daddy what it is that he wants.

Perhaps the most life changing and deeply devastating thing that happened in these 42 days was the death of my father-in-law, Bill Hamilton.

Bill passed away early in the morning of May 12. It was not expected, it was not likely, it was shocking. He was a great father to my husband and a great Papa to my children. It is still fresh everyday and I sometimes actually forget that I will never see him again on this earth. I know that he is healed of all of his sickness, all of his pain and his fears. He was set free and is living in his perfect home with our God. We will miss him everyday.

We continue to hold tight to our faith and assurance of his salvation. We know that he was worthy of Christ' blood and because of his faith in Him while on this earth, he is with Him now in Heaven.
