Back to School

Today is the first day of Rick's last year of law school. I have been dreading this day a little bit. It's been nice having so much time together this summer, but that is about to end for awhile. Even though the last year of law school is supposed to be the easiest, I have a feeling that this year will actually be the hardest one we've faced so far. Bryan House will soon be in full swing with a thousand details that need our attention, and Rick is becoming more and more engaged in the Lighthouse project for East Aurora, which is great, but will also take time. I thought last year was tough, but this year we have even more to manage. Not to mention that some of our closest refugee friends are moving away and we're feeling kind of lonely just thinking about it. This year will be a test of our endurance and patience. Today marks the start of the marathon. I hope I have what it takes to finish.

I am kind of facing that dreaded feeling, too, as Scott heads back to work this week and the boys start school next week. I can totally relate to that feeling of running a marathon. Maybe if we run together, it will be easier? Mabye we'll even be strong enough to sprint to the finish line in June?! We can do this, Girl! We have to---God is counting on us!!
