Well, we are officially out of our house. After a looooong few days of final packing, lifting (on Grant's part, not mine), and cleaning, we are finished! And TIRED. We are currently sitting in the guest room at Kristin and Ryan Zeeb's house, some wonderful friends of ours who are sharing their home with us until the baby comes. We are so grateful for their open arms to help us in this way these last few weeks of my pregnancy. All of our belongings are now in a storage unit and transition has truly begun - not the 9-10cm kind of transition, just moving! For those of you who don't know, we will be here in Upland, IN, until a number of days after the baby has come and then we will head to Kansas for a couple of months. We will be living with my parents, soaking up some good time with family and friends while Naomi is so new. Then at some point, date undetermined, we will move on out to Louisville.
While I would love to be settled in a home with a nursery all set up and organized, I am reminded regularly in my heart that our home is truly where the Lord is. You don't need the perfect house, perfect job, perfect external set up... we are simply placing our trust and stability in the constancy of God. We cannot wait to meet our baby and focus on the celebration of her life - even if there is no room at the inn. :)
Well there is plenty of room at our little bed and breakfast. And we serve lunch and dinner too. : ) We love you and cant wait to have you three here for as long as you need to stay.
