I am exactly where I need to be.
When we moved to Leamington, Peter strongly wanted to sell the house. I did not and unusually held fast, becoming a reluctant landlady. Less than two years later I was very grateful for this as Nathan and I were able to move home.
Back to our old house to heal and start again.
The house that became a home again through the friends that loved and surrounded us, who decorated, cleaned, repaired, schemed, moved, connected and cooked. Who just wanted us out of there and safely home. The family that God placed us in.
Friends connected with other friends who they at that point did not know. The girlfriend of the son of a close friend weeded the garden. I was barred from my bedroom for a week while it had a makeover. Things just happened. I felt so very rich in the middle of fear, shellshock and sadness.
God sets the lonely in families - Psalm 68:6.
