Thank you to everyone who left sweet comments or took time to email me encouraging words. We are adjusting back to our family of four. We miss Zack like crazy but we are trusting the Lord and letting go. After all, we took him into our home for him, not for us. So I am going to stop making it about me and my feelings and desires. Zack if you read this (what 17-year old reads my blog?…probably none!) — I love you to pieces and NOTHING will change that.
I will be back blogging tomorrow. I have had a little project therapy last week to help keep my mind occupied. So this week should be full of inspiration 🙂
Thank you to all my faithful readers. There is a lot I love about blogging but the community of caring one receives when down is undeniable. Thanks for helping me up again!
So glad you are doing better. Sometimes, you just need time to process things…
So glad you're feeling better about the situation. You've been in my prayers.
Happy to hear that you are doing better. I'm sure it was a big adjustment. ((hugs))
Sometimes leaning on "strangers" can help get the feelings out there. All of us bloggers put ourselves out there everyday, and you do it so bravely.
Looking forward to see your inspiring projects & self soon! Until then know that I'm lifting you up in prayer.
God's blessings friend,
Sarah 😀
I was thinking about you and your family this weekend, especially when I saw a "roadside rescue" chair in need of an Infarrantly Creative make-over! I'm looking forward to your new posts. Take care.
I can sooo relate, Beckie. We took in an 18 year old after he was released from foster care. He moved out. Later took in Hubs' half-brother. Then 2 other of my kids' friends along the way. Plus, MIL.
These were not all great experiences, but many of them were. It was always hard when they moved on. Now it's just Hubs & me. But I was ready for an empty nest.
When you're ready, will be glad to have you 'back'.

Can't wait to see what you have in store for us!
Beckie-
I am happy to hear that your heart isn't so heavy. I am sure the love of your family made a lasting impression that will be with him even when he can't be with you. I'm glad to "see" you back.

Hooray you're back! Now time to catch up for me!
