The girls left for Texas yesterday so Jess could visit her boyfriend, Josh. I am scared having them so far away and feel just incomplete without them. I wish so badly that I had been able to take them!! Even though there is a good chance they are safer than they would have been traveling with me. Also, when I was dreaming of being able to drive them myself, I was thinking it would be the last time I saw Texas.
I'll probably never go there again. I remember how excited I used to get as I got closer to my home state, how thrilling to pass the skyline of Dallas and then just feel my heart bursting when Houston came into view.
I was born there, lived a third of my life there, but it hasn't been Home since Mom died. Maybe longer.
Nebraska is my home. I will die here.
But a huge piece of my heart is in Texas right now and I want it back.
Please God bring my girls safely home to me.
