Gaining perspective. Life beyond a campaign can feel a lot less busy at times. “Daddy’s home” has meant “and staying home for the rest of the night” much more frequently than the past several months have played out. It is too easy to let the busyness of one season set the stage for the holiday season ahead. The days have flown and time speeds up, but countless moments have been captured like photographs tucked away in a shoebox. I’m beyond thankful for them. New friendships and memories fill each one.
I’ll be spending much of my energy pouring into these two huge blessings as they gain perspective of what it means to be a friendly neighbor daily and challenge my perspective on life just the same. I hope Thanksgiving and Christmas are blessings to all and a time to gain new perspectives.
