Scrolling back through the last several blog entries I am glad to see the joy of it. Truth be told, the kids are happier and healthier that we have ever seen them. We are so grateful for this time with our girls. Picabo is laughing louder and more fully than ever, and Indiana is doing so much better. She is wonderfully curious, and funny, and full of life...
As for me and Blaise, we are... We are uncertain - perhaps more than ever. Why are we out here? What are we doing? Where is God in this? This last question is the toughest to wrap our heads around... Let me tell you why.
We were about six hours from Thunder Bay when we heard from Sick Kids Hospital... Indiana has a growth on her liver that has been growing, and they want to do a biopsy. The news broke our hearts, and when we told Indi, the news broke hers. She just wants to be okay. We, of course, are now almost home - - be back tomorrow in fact...
It doesn't make any sense. Maybe that's the way it is supposed to be...?
"Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!" says Phil. 4:4. Note here that the verse is not followed by "unless you are struggling in any way or if you are unsure about your purpose in life..." Instead, the verse is followed by "Do not be anxious about anything." But that is hard to do. Indi cries at the thought of going back to the hospital. And we do not sleep as peacefully as the girls do night after night...
The vacation part of our trip is over... Back to life now.
