The Piercing Pain of Reality

Our Nebraska Trip was one of several emotions at once. To pin point how it went??... Well that is almost near to impossible to put into words, however, the highlight of what meant the most to us was to see and visit with our Nebraska friends that we call Our Nebraska Family. It was such a joy and delight to go to a place of Friends; that have been an amazing support to us since the day we arrived to the unknown Midwest back in 2007. We tried to target our trip with visiting our favorite (positive) memories that we have with Caleb. However as we went to all these places almost ALL were under construction, that was very difficult to see. Didn't think within 2 years there would be so much change, not what we thought we would see, it was a piercing pain. Our hopes of visiting that past was slashed, and we are now living a painful reality that we can never go back, not even to Nebraska to find home. But we would still move back for the people... Oh how we love those Nebraskans!

Sorry to hear that you didn't get to visit all the same old places. But glad to know you got to see the same friendly faces! We miss our Nebraska family too.

How fun to see those pictures! Everyday we grow one step closer to the second coming! It is fun to see how big your kids have grown, and see those great pictures of caleb boy. It is hard to look back and see how much has changed in our lives, and realize today is tomorrows memories. Im glad you made the trip- more wonderful memories for your great family. We love you so!
