     Pascal bought Owen an inexpensive gun that shoots little rubber bbs. Who would have known this would have provided hours of entertainment for two 9 year old boys.  Owen and Marvin had more fun with that gun than one can imagine.  They spent countless hours shooting into a pond, at soda cans and into dirt hills.  It was a great way for the boys to spend a lot of time together as this was their last week together and today we had to say our final goodbyes as Marvin's family moves away.  It has been a tough day, lots of tears and a Mama's heart broken as she had to see her little guy lose his best buddy.  Our families became super close and as sad as it was to say goodbye I have HOPE.  Hope that these two boys will see each other again! 

I am so grateful for Hope.  As Emily Freeman says, "the kind that doesn't expect always sunshine, but the kind that holds on no matter how things appear..."         

                                                 In the shadow
                                                 In the sadness
                                               Holy Spirit come.
                                             Won't you rise up like a promise
                                             On the wings of dawn?
                                             Cause even when the darkness covers me
                                             I settle on the far side of the sea
                                             No matter what I do I can't outrun your love.
