We found out last night that my husband’s mother passed away yesterday due to cancer. Her homegoing was not unexpected, but I don’t think you’re ever ready to lose the ones you love. We are rejoicing that she is no longer sick, or suffering, or sad – she is the in presence of her beloved Savior! You might be interested in reading the post Practicing Thankfulness in Laughter and Pain, which I wrote after we found out about her terminal cancer.

I will be going silent for a few days- please be praying for the family if you think about us. I will leave you with this song from Steven Curtis Chapman – he sums it up well.
