D and i travelled to country NSW for a family wedding last weekend. 
i knew it was going to be a bit of a rollercoaster weekend – D’s aunt and uncle who lost all of their worldly possessions would be there, taking comfort in the tears and hugs of family for the first time since the fires.
hugs and tears to also offer much needed strength to another uncle and aunt, going through an indescribable trial of their own. His word says He stores our tears in a bottle [Psalm 58:6]
and all the time, thinking of my beautiful and brave sister.
i always look forward to visiting the farm. i love the quiet faithfulness of the families here. i am encouraged after being with them, knowing the strength in our faith, remembering the simple things of grace and trust.
i wake up to views like this.
we plan to take N and A for a holiday in the coming months. perhaps at harvest time, when it will become a working holiday for D.
thoughts of wide open spaces appeal to me. of lots of laughter, time for cooking, gardening, sewing.
these are the things that surrounded me this weekend::
