Homeschool Family

I have been thinking. I am so glad to be part of the "homeschooling family." Everyone is loving, caring, and I think would try to do anything for you. I believe if we didn't homeschool almost 8 years ago, I wouldn't know about all the people who need prayers, help etc. I would be sitting in the comfort of my church and home just thinking of my immediate surroundings not the people hours or days or weeks away. Since the accident with Rachael Kligmann I have really realized the need to pray with all your heart, soul, and mind. My Ben and Becca have been away all week and boy I cannot wait until they get home and I can hug/see them.

As I was putting Ana to bed last night, I was sitting on the floor next to her (she has a small toddler bed so the floor is as comfortable as I get :) ), I pulled open the curtain and watched beautiful fireworks over the houses. I sat there and thought at how we were all celebrating the 4th of July and there is a family who is grieving over the loss of their child. BUT, I then thought that heaven and the angels and especially God were rejoicing over the entrance of Rachael into heaven...her heavenly home. That must be a sight to see when someone goes home.

I've been thinking/pondering about how fragile life is and at anytime we could be taken from this earth. I am ok with knowing that I would immediately go to Jesus. I would miss everyone here but, I have no fear. How about you??
