Patience is a Virtue

Praying until words no longer make sense,

and still I'm left waiting.

The time will be right;

in HIS time, it will be

everything I've hoped for,

nothing less.

Can it happen sooner, Lord?

Everyday I ask.  And ask.  And ask.

Is it possible to want something

so much it hurts?

Asking, begging, needing.

Vacant

is my womb,

ready and willing

to receive the greatest gift.

Understanding has set in.

Everything will turn out fine.

Keep praying.

Back Home Again in Indiana

Kolin and I got to head home the weekend after New Year's.

2 hours in

We spent the night at Mama's on the way:

 

Once we got to Logan, we ate lunch at China Lane with the Halls (SO delicious).  Then we spent some time with Mia:

who is getting SO BIG!

Jeremy, Mandy, Kolin, and I headed to Beef & Boards in Indianapolis to see The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee and had a ton of fun; the show was really hilarious, and I even got to be part of the show!  Afterward, we watched the rest of the Colts game (let me rephrase that: we watched the Colts lose, then proceeded to get drunk and play Catchphrase) at a friend's house with many of Ball State's finest:

We spent the next day with the Morris clan:

And that night we had dinner with the Fallens and got to meet Quinn:

Monday it was time to head back, but first we got to meet Dylan:

Sidenote: he's going to make a great dad!

The drive was fine...

  5 hours in this time!

...until we got to NC and it turned TREACHEROUS: freezing rain and snow.  So, it took us 17 hours instead of 13. :'(  But we made it unscathed...just sleepy.

Keep praying. 

2011, What?!

Whoa.  Amy came to ring in the new year with us, and it was a FUN weekend!  Her first full day here Friday the 31st), we enjoyed a bit of downtown Savannah:

we took in the sights...

 and generally acted like goofy tourists.

After dinner at a tasty Thai place, Kolin had to go home and sleep (lame) while Amy and I joined a few of my favorite gays and ladies at Club One for some drag action:

RAH RAH AH AH AH, etc.

 Lookin' hot.

Her final full day here (Sunday), we slept in (that was nice), then did some more strolling, and made sure to make the most of her Savannah experience:

 brunch at Clary's,

a photo opp. at The Pirate's House,

 a walk through Colonial Park Cemetery,

 pizza at Vinnie's,

 a stop at the beach,

 dinner at Uncle Bubba's,

 and a haunted tour!

I loved every minute of it and can't wait for her to return!

Keep praying.
