Hello, August

We started this day with an early morning and another doctor’s appointment.

Tomorrow we will be moving our youngest son into his first apartment off-campus for the start of his 3rd college year.

This month I will be starting my own journey as a grad student pursuing my M.A.

and we will also start radiation treatment for my husband.

I feel emotional.

I feel watchful yet trusting.

I feel thankful.

Hello, August.

Hello, new experiences.

Hello, new uncertainties.

Hello, new medications.

Hello, new prayers.

Hello, new faith-filled action steps.

Hello, new opportunities to feel good.

Hello, new connections to be made

and people to serve and ways to give.

Hello, new reasons to be grateful.

Hello, countless moments to love

and to be loved.

Chin up, heart open. ❤
