A Place to Call Home

Yesterday was a great day! We were invited to a Dutch Oven Pot Luck and the transformation I saw in my family during this evening was wonderful. Even though I did not have a camera I will never forget the picture I saw. Sara chatting with anyone and everyone who would listen. Clayton running around screaming, "I am a salami." Instead of I am a zombie like the the other kids. And Jason having a great time talking to someone about cars and old friends. It was a moment that eased my heart and told me,"Yes, this can be our home."
It will still be a while longer before my children stop telling all the kids at the park how much better Dallas is. And Clayton doesn't scream that he wants to go back to our old house when throwing temper tantrums, but progress is being made. It is nights like the one we had yesterday that helps us all to feel like we can feel at home here.
