December 19, 2009. This is the date that I cannot get out of my mind. I wake up thinking about this date. Throughout the day I count down the days, hours, and minutes to this day. I go to bed and dream about this day. Why? I'm going home.
I never thought that going home would be so important. I've been away from home many times and each time I returned it was always sweet but never has it held such importance and necessity. I can't even begin to describe how this trip home will refresh my spirit, my sanity, and my faith.
I look forward to being with family, not necessarily doing anything but enjoying each others company. I look forward to seeing friends who will no doubt remind me that life is not only about work and that I need to worry less and laugh more. I look forward to singing and praying with my church family. Although I experience the effects of the many positive thoughts and prayers daily, it doesn't compare to the hugs, laughter, and sometimes tears we experience together. I look forward to being home.
I just can't get the date out of my mind. It's December 19, 2009.
See you soon!
Can't wait for you to be home! Miss you, Sherri
