Africa, China or Tuscaloosa?
L ubbock, Texas was my destination last week. The trip held excitement, a family united, joy, astonishment and love. We were all gathered to celebrate a rebirth. My beautiful son, Nick celebrated his third year of recovery. There were dark days during the prior years of this journey and actually the darkness was so very black and ominous and scary. But last week, we were washed in bright light. I've learned that it's only in fully experiencing the dark that we truly appreciate the light. Now, for our son there is a newness, an eagerness to share what he's learned. He leaves for Africa in just a few days...going into the world to share hope and recovery and redemption. Austin, Texas is my destination next week. The trip holds excitement, joy, astonishment and love. I'm going to help my beautiful daughter, move into her summer place. This sweet girl was brave and courageous and left a safe community to move 730 miles aw...
