Where does the time go. The weeks seem to fly by, by somehow the days
seem to drag. I feel like I am definitely stuck somewhere.
It seems I have been wondering what direction it is that I need to
be going for quite some time now.
I thought I had my life planned. I always planned to have Kristen by my side.
We would go forward, her and I, doing what was important.
It feel like with the loss of Kristen, I have lost my future.
I feel like I am back at square one wondering which direction to go.
There are days where chaos and uncertainty seem to follow me wherever I go,
and other days I don't feel anything at all.
I hate both of those.
I hate the numbness and the uncertainty.
I don't want to find a new normal.
I liked my life the way it was before.
One of the hardest things for me is trying to find joy and purpose in life.
I guess there is one good thing,
at least I am trying.
Can you believe I would even sit here for a minute and complain about
my own plight when there are children, many children who are
suffering around the world. Sorry for complaining.
Maybe I can't go and rescue one, but I can continue to speak for them.
Tonight I bring you...

Correcting her vision would be such a blessing for her.

We love meeting the kids you introduce. I *so* wish we could adopt them - all of them.
I can pray for them! And gladly do.
Just thinking - your words don't sound like complaining. Not at all. They sound like love. They sound like missing your girl. They sound normal.
Your heartache keeps flowing into service for others, in a million ways.
You are the last person I would call selfish or complaining. You have so much love to give - and you wanted to be able to keep giving it to Kristen, too...in person.
That's commitment, that's enduring relationship, and that's what you have with Kristen.
I just wish it didn't have to hurt so much. With this kind of love, I think there's no other way.
Praying for your kids and for you,
Cathy in Missouri
She is gorgeous!
