WORLDS ARE FORMING

So...this is really happening. And I like it.

This has been an intense month of life and training!

This week, the dorm's staff arrives, and the adventure continues!  Soon after that, the freshmen and returning students arrive, too.  THESE THINGS are the things I have been excited about. 

I cannot wait to see what is to come...

The only two rooms that are close to being done...

     
                   Part of my living room.                                          Part of my kitchen. 

Neither room is complete yet...still need to get some odds and ends in there!  Nonetheless, I really enjoy this new home so far.

Things I cannot control.

It has been a busy, chaotic, and beautiful few days.

Within the last week, my Grandpa Cleveland's health declined quickly, and he died quietly and beautifully here in Spokane on Sunday afternoon, surrounded by all of his five kids and much of the rest of the family, too.  God was very present in the midst of it all.

It was a privilege to help care for him in his last days and to care for our family in the process.  I am grateful for my experience in CPE last summer to begin to prepare me for those days with him. 

I will be doing Papa's memorial service on Wednesday and his graveside on Monday.  Again, a privilege I am glad to be a part of.  Prayers are appreciated for our family!
