Back Home...

This was the lovely sign that greeted me

when I came Sunday night

to my dear friend's home.

*

I had a very good visit in Ottawa.

*

It is now Tuesday morning, 

I saw Mr. Husband off to work, 

Cleo the Cat is sharing my chair and purring

and laundry is going and 

I am slowly putting things away.

*

Groceries are going to need to be ordered,

clothes hung to dry,

all the wonderfulness of coming back home.

*

Late Sunday night after I got back from my friend's,

dear friends from BC told me of Fr. Matthew's sudden tragic passing;

he was a dear friend to many people 

and I like many have been thinking and praying

for him and for his family.

*

I am so thankful for my life with Mr. Husband,

for my home and family; for my church family

that spans two countries and many churches;

for the time I had in Ottawa.

*

We must be grateful for each day as God is

the one who holds our future

and in Him we continue to trust....
