Laela is home! I have no pictures, but you’ll have to take my word for it. She is well and happy and tired and she really enjoyed her first ever youth retreat 💜 I LOVED youth retreats growing up, and its so fun to see my kids revel in them the ways I did, making friends from other towns, learning new songs, and experiencing that type of community that a person can only find at camp.
As independent as Laela is, I was thrilled when she texted me this morning and assured me she was having a blast, but was ready to come home 💜 Now, she is home. Well fed. Slow moving. Rowan did her usual dish slot, and everyone went to bed without struggle. Which is handy because tomorrow is a busy one.
Please, Lord, grant us good solid rest, and strength for the day that ONLY comes from you 💜 Amen.
