Sorry I missed your call last night. Lately I've been a night owl, but crashed before you called.
You might try a gratefulness journal. I know how grateful you are for the grace of our Lord. I date each page, have to fill a page, and continue the numbering from #1 and on. Right now I am up to #89 of things/people/experiences I am grateful for. It really helps me a great deal, especially when I am shaky or in a funk.
I love the part of him having to fit into your/the kids' schedule. REALITY is a wonderful thing.
We got it straight now, though! Thank you again for opening your home to me!!!
The journal is a great idea and I am taking you up on the suggestion.
Yes, but sometimes, my reality seems unreal.

Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. I Corinthians 13:7
"Wild at Heart" is a fabulous book! Great insight into the male mind and essential for a man's walk. If your H is a reader, then my opinion is to have the kids give it to him for father's day. It can't be coming from you or he will, in most likelyhood, put it on a shelf and forget it.
A Gift from the kids--got it! Yes, and the kids would give him a Christian book, so it will not be weird.

You're going to go see Kelly Jo????? AWESOME!
Yep!
I used to go up the mountains in PA when I was a kid and I absolutely loved it--the quiet, the peace, the outdoor simple fun. I know that the area around KellyJo's is similar. I am so looking forward to it!

I am new to this forum (posting anyway) and just wanted to tell you how encouraging the posts on this thread were to me. I also like the version of I cor 13:7 you use. . . endures through every circumstance . . . how true is that right now!
“Never cease loving a person, and never give up hope for him, for even the prodigal son who had fallen most low could still be saved; the bitterest enemy and also he who was your friend could again be your friend; love that has grown cold can kindle again.”
