Today we celebrated John turning 42, Michigan style! For us right now that means everything took longer than I thought it would, was hotter than usual and in the end turned out just fine. (We did finally get the air conditioner installed in the living room so Katy, at least, will be cooler!) Today I picked up a little grill (after googling "how to light a charcoal grill" and happily feeling confident we could handle it; I should have googled "how to build a charcoal grill", because unfortunately $20 at Big Lots doesn't buy you an assembled grill... Not the highlight of Johns day, but definitely two hours well spent towards future grilling--)
Things are settling in for us a bit, although with the holiday weekend, a birthday to celebrate and still waiting for Johns job to begin, things still seem very unfamiliar. It is a time when I am glad we base out decisions on Who God is, and what we see in the Bible,rather than on our emotions or we would run home to all our familiar lived ones.
