How often is it that God fulfills our dreams and desires in ways that are completely foreign to us - and the journey along the way is where the stretch happens - and we cling, like you say, with fingernails..... the blessing is in the stretch and our reliance on Him to fill the gap.<br />Praying that your journey will turn that corner soon where you'll all be living together in your Italy home. And it will be wonderful.<br />Gailhttp://delightfullydiva-ish.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3664158159475132723.post-84201327825436078032012-10-04T03:17:00.524+01:002012-10-04T03:17:00.524+01:00Wow, your post brought tears to my eyes (although ...Wow, your post brought tears to my eyes (although that may partly be because I'm tired & sick and feeling like crap)! But I was so pleased to read it, especially the part about you having peace with your decisions & situation, becuase only yesterday I commented to Mum that I didn't understand how God's plan for your lives could include you n Austin being apart for such long periods. I know "His ways higher" etc but I also know that family is also big in His plans. I admire you greatly, envy you (in part) and truly hope that He will reveal the bigger picture sooner rather than later.<br />Lots n lots of love<br />Narnie xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3664158159475132723.post-62187156758790578352012-10-03T21:01:05.259+01:002012-10-03T21:01:05.259+01:00thanks for sharing the beginings of the dream, I h...thanks for sharing the beginings of the dream, I had always wondered how it came about for two kiwis to live in Italy. <br />And I was at parachute 2000.

Your Italian dream must seem a little different to your current Italian reality but still His hand is on you all and oh what a precious gift it is to have faith and peace that can only come from Him xx MegMeghan Maloney Photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03506040925450598933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3664158159475132723.post-81984000963340867982012-10-03T19:05:00.571+01:002012-10-03T19:05:00.571+01:00P.S.

You really ARE doing a wonderful job! And what a lovely father in law (and a king at that!) to write such truthful and life-giving, inspiring words to you. Such a gift. I know what it is to bring up children in a foreign country...it's not easy and sometimes so hard! But I don't know about doing it so often on my own, so...great respect i have :) And may that day you all live there together come sooner than you imagine :) xxremaliahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16987208566270829465noreply@blogger.com
