Due to the lifestyle that I live, I have discovered that the word "Home" has multiple meanings.
Home, where I live.
Home, where I am staying.
Home, where I am at.
Home, where the heart is.
Home, where my family is.
I just went to a few different homes this last month. It's always wonderful being able to see my family and friends that I grew up with. No matter where I go and what I do, this Home is always there. It changes a lot but at the same time it really doesn't.
We Malicks still go out once it gets dark and play Sanctuary Light. No matter how old we get.
We still sit around the dining room table and eat together. The faces may change some but whoever is there all sit down and enjoy a meal.
We still go and watch the church's softball team play. And the fans still get excited when we actually get a run in! :-)
We still do the old traditions but there are new traditions. The family also grows.
My brother and Sis in law just had a beautiful baby girl two days after I arrived. I will admit... I am enjoying the role of proud Auntie. (For more pictures see my Facebook I have an album dedicated to just my niece.)
My family may be big. But I can't imagine it being any different. I love being able to spend time with each of my siblings. To see how God is working in each of their lives.
