and just like that he's back where he belongs

he came in realllly late last night (1 am). 

but what an amazing experience it was. 

while he sleeps (traveling for a week wears you out- and he stayed up all night last night!!) i thought i'd share a few photos.

there is so much i want to say.

so much.

but i can't find the words right now.

i'll be back when i can form a clear thought, tell you what is in my heart.

but for now this is all i can say.

thank you God.

and thank all of you for supporting my family on this journey.

since last night, there has been a prayer on repeat in my head. and it goes something like this.

thank you so much for bringing my family back together. thank you, Lord, for that.

there were days i thought that tonight might never happen. thank you thank you thank you.

and my heart was aching for the families of the 8 boys that didn't walk into that gym.

so much love and sadness all at the same time.

i'll be back later, just wanted to pop in. i'm way too wound up to sleep, even though J and the 2 chickies are both napping.

love to you all.
