Out Ioway

My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of Heaven and earth,
He will not let your foot slip-
He who watches over you will not slumber.
-Psalms 121:2,3

And then to home...

Today will be the first of the two-day trek home.

We shall be going back with an extra vehicle, taking the car we'd loaned to Bruce's for their extended stay in the United States.

Just a five hour jaunt up to Elizabeth's in OK. Seems a real shame not to harass certain people over Longview way. How often will we be in Texas? I give Ardith (who is remaining for a few more days) free rein and full authority to annoy, badger and even kick a shin or two on my behalf.

Actually, someone will be down in August to take Jason back to LeTourneau. Loren and I haven't cast the urum and thummim as yet to see who gets to go to Texas for Jason and who will head out Indiana-way with Kendra this fall.

Had an interesting discussion amongst the adults last evening on the nature of the Christian's walk with God. I'll just leave it at that since I do not excel at encapsulating two or more hours into one paragraph.

Poor Jason was out with all the kiddos and was forced to resort to a Veggie Tale on his laptop. As a reward, he got to sleep on a couch instead of the floor for this last night.

Ma has recently returned from her last walk of the trip. Counting tomorrow morning we'll have been gone 10 days and I was able to walk on seven mornings (approx. 2 miles, walking and jogging)

Hopefully that will keep me from gaining more than the alloted 4 pounds I've allowed myself, though fearsomely good food has been provided and I have indulged in a snack or....*cough*....two.

Must go. Uncle-Mark-the-husband-who-actually-cooks
(not-that-I-would-have-personal-experience) is making pancakes again for breakfast.

"My best, yet," he modestly proclaimed.

Ta, ta
