I sincerely  miss my roots, my hometown, my friends who became family, and actual family still up there!  I've been thinking of you all and everything i miss lately and wanted to mention it.  But also want to mention, that no matter how difficult this move has been.  No matter how stressed and worried we get, I still KNOW that God has brought us here.  He called us to move and to put faith in Him.  And now we await.  We await His kindness, His provision, and His plan for us.  No matter how much I miss you all and my home, I remember that this world is not my home, this is not my life, it's all His. All I can do is find the things He's given to be thankful for and trust in His goodness.

I love and miss you Alaska and company!
I am coming to love you Colorado.

God I love you more than everything, thank you for this adventure.  Show me your glory!
