Home.

Home?
Home?
Are you kidding I was just talking about the concept of home yesterday…..
Do you realize you always have a home?
A home to come back to if all your Solid Plan A-Y’s don’t work out?
Imagine that not the case. Now imagine the case is; you loose your home on your 14 birthday.
My husband and I talked about this..and I am sure I thought about it all day….Little girls on their 14 th birthday shown the door and told to go make something of yourselves. No mother no father….no home.
Do you remember being 14? I wasn’t cute…and I wasn’t the smartest thing…. Oh my gosh and so not emotionally stable. Yikes.
I could be someones home. Oh I know I already am a home for 7 …but more?…Just so they could travel through life and always know I would have their back. They could always come home. We would always be their home. I want to be that for those 13 year old girls dreading their next birthday. I want to be their home.
<s Yen said yesterday when I asked her if she is glad she is here (I told you I was perculating about this ALL day)…." yes I didn't have a home or a family it was just Mer and me…and now i have a home and brothers and sisters and all these people come to our home on holidays."
"But Yen, sometimes I get mad…or you get mad at your brothers…."
"that doesnt stay long and before I had no one to get mad at..no one…. And the boys just do ruuude things sometimes… But I am still glad I am home.". Her eyes got all watery as they easily do as she assured me she was happy.
What more can I ask…. But so much more home I have to give.

STOP.

Phew…time was tight and so much more story to tell…. Maybe you could stay tuned about this new turn of recent family discussions? Or perhaps, you could touch my hand in the pic above and send a prayer of discernment to me…because I could use it.
