The last few weeks have felt like a roller coaster here at home. We have had bad exams and good ones, bad meetings and good ones, good news and bad, wonderfully busy days and very quiet days. (If you didn't catch it my Chelsea photos are in the last post) I am so glad that I am learning to trust throughout all circumstances that our lives are in God's hands. That he sees the bigger picture whilst we only see this little bit and that he gives us enough light for this little bit and no more. Thankfully I can't see into the future so have to just take each day as it comes. This doesn't stop the night time worrying but it does lessen it. I so love a plan and it is very hard when you don't know the outcome and therefore can't plan. Yesterdays good news was that Chloe passed her driving test - HURRAH! She was very brave to book it in the middle of her finals but I think she felt that she might as well have all the horrid things together. She has been driving with Ed for quite a while now and is a very competent driver but the test is so scary especially when you have failed before. So we were delighted to get her text saying she passed. So we have one more week of exams - Ben finishes today and Chloe on Thursday. I will be relieved to reach that point. Then we wait for results - ho hum!
This weekend - flower arranging, bible study, church, gardening (inspired by Chelsea), some ironing (my boy goes to Anna's prom tonight and I love my boys in suits) and some quiet reflecting on the week gone!
I hope you all have great weekend and half-term plans - especially my lovely school friends some off to Boston. Have a great time!
