Driving home from Palm Springs after being gone for the week, I was filled with great anticipation and excitement over the impending reunion with my little “Buggy B” – incredibly anxious to see her!
Unfortunately, the car trip that should have taken only about 2 ½ hours turned into more than a 4 hour drive because of traffic and rain. So by the time we finally reached our exit and pulled off the freeway, I was hootin’ and hollarin’ in the car with enthusiasm at the thought of soon holding my sweet lady.
Then my thoughts immediately shifted to Judson. Struck by my eagerness to be reunited with Jessie after only 6 days, I imagined how it would pale in comparison to the reunion with my Buddy Boo after a lifetime. Oh, the thought of holding my sweet man.
As a gesture to connect, I gently placed my left hand over Jud’s name engraved on my wrist and whispered under my breath, “Someday soon, Juddy. Someday soon.”
Eagerly I wait.
One reply on “Eagerly Waiting”
It’s so great to hear about your Jessie joy! You’re such a loving, enthusiastic, affirming, 100% mom!
Yes, the ultimate family reunion is coming soon and very soon. The LORD will sweep us away in His love where we will live without time and limitations.
2 Peter 3:8 But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
May you feel the Lord’s hand sheltering your own as you cover Jud’s name, engraved on your arm.
I believe you’ll be blessed by this song:
You Won’t Relent by Misty Edwards

You won’t relent until You have it all
My heart is Yours…
I’ll set You as a seal upon my heart
AS A SEAL UPON MY ARM
For there is love that is strong as death
Jealousy demanding as the grave
And many waters cannot quench this love
Waters cannot quench this love
Come be the fire inside of me
Come be the flame upon my heart
Come be the fire inside of me
Until You and I are one….
