Half Way Through Day 2

Quinn and her first rain

So yesterday was the first full sabbatical day.  It seemed like most any Saturday.  I was early to rise, read my devotional that Chris gave us at the Presidents dinner.  What an amazing devotional.

This morning was day one of The Love Dare.  My husband hasn’t noticed yet 😉, but I’ve been much more patient and have chosen to not say anything instead of the wrong thing so far today.  I think this will make a huge difference in me which will certainly make changes in our marriage.

Nine am yesterday was the time to be present for the second and last training day for my volunteer work.  It was a day full of case studies about human trafficking.  No Boundaries International does work dealing with human trafficking victims in the Amarillo area.  I guess I have been living under a rock for years now and didn’t know this was a problem in my town.  Maybe I just chose not to know.

My original sabbatical service project was going to be in Belize with daughter and son in law.  They go every year and help in a children’s ministry there.  But plans changed with the unexpected early birth complications of my first grandson, 👶🏻 Elliott Franklin Scott 💙❤️💙.  I know most people reading this know about Elliott so I won’t go into the details.  I received my TeamElliott shirt in the mail yesterday and I am so blessed to get to wear it today.

Right now, blogging and about to begin my book, out of the deck, listening to rare rainfall and cuddling my sweet baby, Quinn.  I am sure hoping to have her housetrained in the next 28 days!

Elliott is a little less swollen and can open both eyes today. Small blessings ❤️👏
