we have been working, we have been hanging with family. we have spent times with friends me missed. it has been just like home is for many people. home.
its also been such fun taking a bunch of child/familys photos for family and friends!
i have been lazy with writing but my mind is flat out comprehending where we are now.
at the end of this week my family takes on the reality of Dad no longer living on this earth as we know it.
a pilgrimage you could say. to where Dad called home.
still i have moments of realising this is what is happening, that no longer will my dad say new things to me, i will rely on my memories and God to remind me where Dad is now.
Together we will take this roller-coster ride to Cambodia.
On the surface it feels like a holiday coming up- with ALL the family.
but then it feels like anything but.
it looms in front of me, unable to think about anything else but Dad/Cambodia.
this may sound to deep but,
its the spelling word you were trying to learn when you were 11, it was beyond you and using the spell check was way easier. One day you confront the word in a way you never thought about before, now you remember how to spell this word, now you never forget this word because of the new reason you have to remember it.
i never realised the imprint someones life could have on mine, the amount of times you think about them, wish you could tell them something or hear their side of the story. you forget to ask things when they are alive. once they are no longer around the one thing you wanna know is everything..
so in a few days feel free to pray for us, even if your not a 'prayer' just talk positively in the direction of God regarding us and I'm sure God will pick it up.
