On the next to the last day of vacation (yep, just one more vacation post to go) we returned to D.C. and visited Teddy Roosevelt Island, Arlington Cemetery, and the White House.

Wide Open Graces
"By entering through faith into what God has always wanted to do for us- set us right with him, make us fit for him- we have it all together with God because of our Master Jesus. And that's not all; We throw open our doors to God and discover at the same moment that he has already thrown open his doors to us. We find ourselves standing where we always hoped we might stand- out in the wide open spaces of God's grace and glory, standing tall and shouting praise."
"Even in childhood was implanted within me a trace of that mysterious unity from which I was derived" St. Augustine
Everybody has to change or they expire. Everybody has to leave, leave their home and come back so they can love it again for all new reasons. I want to keep my soul fertile for the changes, so things keep getting born in me, so things keep dying when it is time for things to die. I want to keep walking away from the person I was a moment ago. Only a good story has a character that's different at the end than it was in the beginning.

"So here's what I want you to do,
God helping you:
Take your everyday, ordinary life -
your sleeping, eating, going-to-work,
and walking-around life -
and place it before God as an offering.
Embracing what God does for you
is the best thing you can do for him."

Denise,
What a wonderful trip that will last long into your childrens memories. Now when they study something in History they will remember just where they were on your trip.
Love and Hugs ~ Kat
