I sincerely apologize for the delay. Day one has been very busy! (shame on me) We have spent a good deal of the day talking about downtime…what it means…when it is deserved…what it is worth…and how it is to be spent. I’m not even sure I can formulate many thoughts yet and will blame that on jet lag or my brain beginning to grind to a halt. We thought of hopping into the rental car tomorrow for more discovery and decided that we would be giving into a “need for speed” – like we are doing something to account for our time.
We will NOT. We will be still. It is harder and harder to be still in today’s world with the voices in my head taunting me for privilege of allowing us this extraordinary break. I will gladly fall back into my ratty old couch at home and never look at another Pottery Barn / Restoration Hardware catalogue with lust in my eyes.
your pictures should be next to the word “covet” in the dictionary. how do we get to where you are at and now? 🙂 🙂 praying you’ll adhere to the promptings to stop. you both need and deserve it. can’t wait to hear about the ethiopian babies!
