Before the kids left for school today, we spent some time talking about the earthquake that Pierre and Ange-Laurette lived through one year ago today. We wanted to make sure they had time to process that in case it came up at school. The rest of the day brought back so many pictures and feelings we didn't realize were still there. The fears, the shock, the worry, and the sadness. Although we had one of the happiest endings to come from the disaster, we will never forget the families of the 230,000 who lost their lives that day...or the millions who still don't know where their next meal will come from or if their children will ever have a roof over their heads. Our children's homeland will never be the same. We share their grief and somberness today, even as we all pray praises to God for their safety here. We don't understand God's ways...but we always trust Him. Today we are praying His comfort on a country who is still so desperate for Him.
