Knee jerk reaction

Sitting here stuck in a snow bank waiting for my brother to pull me out. Another piece of humble pie. Good lesson not to park to close to snow bank.
It will be one week tomorrow since I have been here in Alaska. Its been fun and crazy. The house is full of life, some times to much life for me.
I have had a chance to really be in prayer the last few days. My old reaction to problems is to run from them. So at the time when I got that letter it sounded like a good idea to move back to Eureka. But that is old behavior. What I need to do is go back to Ames so I am there when I can see my kids. I know I am a flake, and if some want to think that well that's ok.
So after visiting here I am going back to Ames. My knee jerk reaction was just that, a knee jerk reaction.
I guess this is all in the growth process. I am sure not perfect yet!

  1. Good For you. Your kids may not need you right now, but they will, and it will be important for you to be close when they do.
