I came across this post today and just thought it was one of the most beautiful things I've read in a while. I confess to stalking this blog but she hasn't updated for some time. This post, however, was so worth the wait. She has found the words to describe so much of what's in my heart right now and I was left feeling encouraged when I finished reading this. Enjoy.
