I know you're tired, I see it in your eyes
All that anxiety that rules your mind
I'll be your shield when you don't feel
Like you've got strength enough to fight
I'll stand by your side

I will carry you
Through your darkest night
When you're terrified
I will carry you
When the waters rise
When your hope runs dry
I will carry you

@ellieholcomb ‘s voice has been singing over and over in my heart and mind this week.

I shared an update in my stories yesterday on our sweet, brave guy. Thank you so much for your outpouring of kind words and prayers. I am so very thankful for you! Your kindness is something we will never forget.

Blindsided. No one in our family. No one in our e

Blindsided.

No one in our family. No one in our extended family. No one has it. It wasn’t on our radar at all. Friday afternoon, following a fun week filled to the brim with activities and adventures together, we received a diagnosis for our boy that we never would have imagined. Our lives have now been changed forever. This coming less than 3 months after receiving a separate diagnosis that we were still processing and working through.

There is a lot on my heart and mind. Too many panic thoughts to write clearly just yet. But it would be silly of me to carry on in this space as if nothing has changed because the truth is, it has. There will always be a “before” and an “after” this diagnosis- Rutledge will not remember but Joshua and I will. We remind ourselves often, our boy is going to be ok. We are learning all the ways to care for him and we are confident the Lord has big plans in store for this guy! When my heart and mind is ready to share more I will because the Lord has given us opportunity to see His amazing grace in a more tangible way than we have ever been stretched to see.

For now please pray for our whole family as we adjust to a new normal. We’re in the hospital still but hope to be headed home some time soon.

Disappointment, it’s a thing, y’all.

We planned, saved, ordered, had measurements taken, and then prepped this weekend to have our kitchen counters installed! I have been SO excited for this since the day we learned we could buy this little house we’d been renting! Good bye super old laminate stuff! Hello bright, pretty quartz! Yay!!!

That was until the kind installers informed me that the sink was measured wrong and would require taking out much needed drawer space. 😅 That was, for sure, a no. So here we are, sort of, starting over. I pouted a reasonable amount of time, but was gently reminded by the Lord that while I am disappointed it’s not like the project is lost forever. I just get to wait a little longer. He encouraged my heart to think on the good- the many, many blessings I have to be grateful for. Gratitude has a way of pushing back disappointment like sunshine through rain clouds.

So although 2/3’s of our kitchen sits in the dining room and we have a temporary solution for counters- most importantly I have a home filled with those most precious to me. And a hope that one day, we will eventually have countertops 😜

Perspective, it changes the game every time.
