My baby brother....

Sunny Tuesday morning. Rushing around, trying to get a casserole out of the oven for MOPs. Listen to a message from my mom that I must've gotten while I was in the shower.

Looks like my baby brother isn't coming home after grad school. It's a long story, and it isn't mine to tell, but some deeply held dreams for my whole family have taken a hit today. So on the way to MOPs I vacillated between sadness, anger, confusion, and hurt. And I tried not to let Seth see that I wanted to cry.

We miss them. I miss the little boy that I grew up with who is now an amazing father and husband, and the wife that we all picked out for him =), and the niece and nephew that I don't get to see nearly enough...

So please pray for all of us today. And especially my brother and his family as he's interviewing right now. For a job in... Wisconsin. Don't even get me started about how I feel about that...
