The guests are all safely home, the sheets are in the laundry and the refrigerator is empty enough that I can find stuff again! God is kind - it was a wonderful time. The snake was spied by Grandpa who dispatched it to ensure Grandma's safety in the sun, and there is peace in the House of Arentson.
We're enjoying the blooms of spring here - the trees are amazing. We have this pink beauty in our back yard - unsure of its variety, but it may be a cherry of some sort. The early bloomers are finished already, the pears and almonds, and now we're admiring dogwoods, tulip magnolias and whatever it is we have in our yard.
These days I am pondering the state of affairs in the world and wondering if we are seeing fresh signs of things coming to a close. The trouble in the Middle East is unprecedented, the Earth groans with earthquakes and other disturbances and the philosophies of the world flourish. Makes me grateful that God knows all about it, and will do all things well. I'm trying to pay attention and be about the things He's called me to, trusting Him, and loving Him and the people He's put on this planet.
