Our 20

At this moment:
-We are in Brunswick, GA in a hotel room. (On our way back to VA from FL. B had a 2 and 1/2 day freelance video job that he couldn't pass up- income!- and we needed to be with Daddy. It has been a whirlwind trip down, around, and now back from FL.)
-The baby is crying because his brother was tapping on his bed. Said brother is trying to get comfortable in his chair/bed.
- Livia is talking to Tate (though she ought to be quiet) and sniffing away her tears from her recent altercation with Owen.
-Owen is still chafing from his rebuke after he hit Livia ("she was irritating").
-B is continuing his correction and training of our children, though he would rather be doing something else.
-The van is outside, under our window- thankfully. We were barely able to pull in to the parking lot; it is impossible to put the van into gear. Tomorrow we will need to be towed, and then. . .
-I am eager to spend time in God's Word, reading my Bible study and renewing my mind. As my family is exhausted and irritable (and irritated!)- including me- and our circumstances again lead us to discouragement and financial desperation. . . my only hope and consolation is in the steadfast love of my Savior and my confidence that He has adopted us and is caring for us WELL as His beloved.
