THE HOUSE IS SOLD!!!! I can now breathe with a sigh of relief and actually relax this weekend and enjoy Abby Joy’s birthday and Blake’s one-year high school reunion!
Though the selling process is familiar (we’ve moved 11 times), each time the details are a little different and the lessons learned are always new. There were some days of sheer fatigue in the process, but God protected me from any symptom of anxiety the entire time. THAT is nothing short of a very personal miracle!
Just want to send a shout out to Jesus for His constant presence, encouragement and love shown through friends and family all over the country. And thanks to you for your prayers and precious notes.
And last, but definitely NOT least – An enormous THANK YOU to BRIAN O’ROURKE, our realtor and friend, for his hard work and daily calls checking in on me and encouraging me on the days when I was so weary and a little short on faith. You have been not only an amazing and thorough realtor, but a phenomenal friend and “big brother” in all of this. And what a bonus, that you are married to an angel, KRISTA O’ROURKE, my dear friend, who also seasoned this time of learning with sweet coffee dates and heart talks.
Am I glad the process is over? Yes. But am I glad it played out the way it did? Absolutely. Because each day of waiting was also a day of learning and leaning and seeing little miracles along the way. My faith is only deeper, my trust is only stronger. And I am one thankful girl for all that God and His amazing children have done.
Now? I have a birthday cake to make for a certain young lady and a batch of chocolate chip/pecan cookies to make for a certain realtor…:-)
