No 29th

Jess passed away on October 29th. The 29th of each month since then has been incredibly difficult. I keep thinking that the next 29th will be easier but so far they aren't getting easier. This month was a present from God, there's no 29th day in February this year!

We start the Warm Place on Tuesday which is also the day Katelyn and my students take the Reading TAKS test. Lately, it's been a busy, hectic time so I am planning on crashing in bed fully clothed after the Warm Place and falling asleep right away.

Jake, you and your girls are still in all of our thoughts and prayers, and we continue to pray to God to help you get thru each 29th day and that someday it gets a little easier for you. We continue to witness the fabulous love you have for your three beautiful girls. Rest peacefully tonight and especially Tuesday night.

You are still covered in our prayers, Jake. I wonder if Jesus fills Jessa in on all the prayers He receives on behalf of her family? I just bet He does and that she says, "That is amazing!" Alyson and Shelley are continuing the playdates with Mandy. I know Jessa is smiling as I am quite sure she orchestrated the whole thing.

I love you,
Aunt Sandy

Continued prayers for you, my friend. Thanks for saying "God's timing" yesterday when you called, and I hope The WARM Place was a wonderful thing for y'all tonight. Can't wait to hear all about it.

In Him and around the corner (and grateful for your wisdom),
