Coming Home

August, September, October, and November are now strewn across the end table, torn off our large wall calendar and bearing the scribbles and colors of our resident Pebble. After spending those four months learning that tenuity is not such a bad companion for our calendars, it seems a bit of a joke to put it back up on the wall with all our appointments and plans. As Solomon once said, “The mind of man plans his way, but the Lord determines his steps.” Coming home after four months is nice, don’t get me wrong, but it also feels… tenuous.
