12 days til 48 days

Well. It happened. We were praying and hoping it wouldn't but it did.*

*this first line actually applies to 3 things in my life right now so please, allow me to explain.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 1. The stomach flu. In the middle of our vacation. Enough said.

# 2. A bad head cold. Piggy-backing the stomach flu. In the middle of our vacation. And that's not even the worst of it.

#3. First day back at work we find out that Trevor has to go to Japan for 2 months. And he's leaving in 12 days. 2 months. In Japan. In 12 days.


I've been trying to decide if I was going to allow this post to head down the steep slope of self-pity and gruesome complaining. Honestly I'm not ready yet to make it positive and upbeat. I'd like to surprise you all with my optimism and trust that God will work this for the best but honestly, I'm just not feeling it yet. I know it in my head but my heart is just really, really sad. So, I'll just leave it at that for now.
That and a sweet picture of Trevor and Rye at the beach. More on that subject to come.

Heidi don't call Trevor chubby, it hurts his feelings.
