Vacation

"What a BLESSING!" I thought as we pulled up to our forest service cabin on Lake Como. I also thought many other things, i.e. We don't deserve this, I can't believe we get to spend a whole week here, etc. etc. We secured this desolate cabin (only one other on the entire lake so aside from day use we were literally the only people on the edge of the lake) back in February and who except God would have known that it would be the EXACT timing and resource we needed to completely unplug from the world and get plugged back into more eternal and important endeavors?K'ma sent Pez dispensers and Silly Putty with us for the girls to play with. I don't know who had more fun- the girls playing with them or me watching them thinking of my own childhood with Pez and Silly Putty?? Between that, a campfire with s'mores, sandcastles, and Raleigh and Mark sleeping in a tent I was overjoyed with living vicariously through my children and their week of 'firsts'.
