I was all wrapped up in my own stuff. Sorry :( I'm glad you are on your way home and hope that all the results were good and that you can all rest well in your own beds soon!

Once they are out they, they are out there. I want to be more purposeful in how I speak & treat others. No matter what. In that split second, in traffic, someone irritates me. I have no idea about that moment for them. Job loss, financial crisis, death. I just have to love each person. No matter what. My life has purpose. To bring Glory to God. In how I act, how I serve, and how I speak. It's not always perfect, but I do catch myself trying to think first, speak second. Great reminder, Kelly. Glad Bryan came through it with the patience he has learned from his parents and with God's Hand over you both.
