Christmas Eve and a broken heart....

Tonight is Christmas Eve and sometimes things just don't go as planned.  Actually, that's our life.  


Our older son came over and went with us to the Christmas Eve church service.  It was so beautiful and very nice to have the entire family sitting together.  After that we snapped a quick family photo (with the camera placed precariously on a book on top of the lampshade...)

And that's where normal stopped for us.

Just a few hours later he was told to leave the house and I was left crying and worrying for the millionth time.  Remember....this never ends for us.  Ever.

It's hard to have the faith when so little progress seems to be being made.  Or when you take one step forward and 16 steps back.  Again and again hope fades as the light we're chasing gets further and further away.  It never ends.......

But tomorrow is Christmas. And the rest of my family deserves so much more than all of this. They deserve to be happy....we all do.
