Day 17: Tired.

"The first nine months here have been so hard."

That's what she said over dinner tonight. And I so remember that feeling. Almost four years ago; lonely, alone and tired.

And I was so glad she pushed past her tired and unfurled that tablecloth to take an iron to it.
And I was so glad I pushed past my tired and spent my evening elbow deep in black beans, limes and tilapia.

God, make our home a rest for the tired and repletion for the empty.  Myself included. Myself especially.
