"Be always coming home"


Parenting is all about verbs; Loving and giving and helping and cheering and kissing and laughing and teaching; Praying and hoping and dreaming and driving and watching and crying and missing.

I read a lovely passage that sums up my deepest feelings just last night.
It is from the book Girl meets God by Lauren Winner. She quotes a poem by Ursela K. LeGuin from her novel Always Coming Home.

Winner writes;

"The poem instructed me to be both careful and fearless, to eat new foods and swim in new rivers. "Return with us, return to us,/be always coming home."

Our boy is on his way...he is well prepared; spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically...he is blessed and he is on his way.



Let's get this show on the road!
