Relative reunion.

It's a beautiful Saturday in Macedonia, Ohio. The sun is shining down on us, and we're enjoying some free time this afternoon. Heard a rumor that it might snow again tomorrow, so trying to take this all in while it lasts. :]

Good week in Ohio overall, and especially fun for me. I had the opportunity to visit my Grandmother and Aunt Janet while our team made a stop in Kent. I hadn't seen either of them since October, and it was such a wonderful reunion.

We got to spend a few hours together, and it was all so surreal showing up in my Invisible Children shirt, without the rest of my family in tow. But it was so amazing nonetheless. I was really grateful for that time we had together, and even more so that my Aunt Janet was able to stick around for our screening that evening.

What a blessing to get to share with her what I'm involved with, for her to get to hear the story and meet Boni and Leo in person. I know she really appreciated the work we are doing, and I couldn't be happier that our team's schedule worked out this way. SO good.

As far as the rest of my family is concerned, Tom and Rita got to host team Middle America the past few nights. My parents getting to meet so many of my loves? Perfection.

Life continues to get better. Which I wasn't even sure was possible. Sigh. Now it's on to Michigan this Monday, and week five of tour already. I don't know where the time's going. So fast it seems...! I'll try my best to keep up.
