Thirty-eight hours left. It's like waiting for a birth.


Here is a clip of a poem I heard Saturday:

"I have daughters and I have sons.
When one of them lays a hand
On my shoulder, shining fish
Turn suddenly in the deep sea."

Robert Bly

-----------------------

Come on home, son.

Come Home



Sunrise, Sunset

4. My dear Ptah...
I feel your anxiety, and your anticipation...

I hope all will go well, and that his homecoming will be all the great things you're both hoping for...

Your use of these photos is superb! They aptly illustrate your longing...

I hold all of you close...

you are a classic! :D :hug: :hi:

Sending you calming and peaceful vibes for a quiet, loving return. May he continue to grow in love and light and may he feel at home. May he have roots so that he feels secure enough to spread his wings and fly. May he bring you joy and may you bring him peace.

Sometimes I feel discouraged and think my work’s in vain,
But then the Holy Spirit revives my soul again.
There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole;
There is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin sick soul.

If you cannot preach like Peter, if you cannot pray like Paul,
You can tell the love of Jesus and say, "He died for all."
There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole;
There is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin sick soul.

Don’t ever feel discouraged, for Jesus is your friend;
And if you lack for knowledge, He’ll never refuse to lend.
There is a balm in Gilead to make the wounded whole;
There is a balm in Gilead to heal the sin sick soul.
