Homesick

Tuesday marked the first day I was homesick. I think ever. I wasn't sure what that feeling was, but I think I can name it being homesick. I guess it's probably abnormal for someone who's lived away from home for over 6 years already to just now have that feeling, but who ever labeled me as normal, right?!

These are some of the things I was/have been Nor Cal homesick for...
  • Going 4wheeling and sitting on the top of a mountain spitting cherry seeds and solving the world's problems with my dad.
  • Baking something that smells amazing with my mom.
  • Cuddling up under a blanket with chai in hand on the couch watching a movie or catching up on life with my sister.
  • Playing cards and snacking on something delicious with my grandma.
  • Eating pho with Mallory and automatically getting into meaningful conversations.
  • Fall colors and crisp, dry air.
  • Skipping rocks in the river while hashing things out with my heavenly Father.
These are some of the things I was/have been So Cal homesick for...
  • Sitting on my red carpet with Jennifer, Jen, and Cindy while sharing pizookies and discussing life.
  • Worshipping with my Missio Dei family.
  • Drinking boba with Nancy.
  • Sharing a house with Jenn and listening to her laugh.
  • Playing with and hugging my kids
  • Hearing Anna's heart and living life alongside of her
So there ya go. A little glimpse into the heart that I can't figure out inside of me ;)
