It’s been a journey.
We’ve been disappointed more than once.
To quote Marie from last December, “I don’t know why I keep getting fooled when I hear someone say that ‘Pizza will be included.’”
Yes. We’ve been disappointed.
And then today happened.
A classier person would have taken photos before we filled our plates. But at that point WE DIDN’T KNOW YET!
We have a winner.
And it’s actually a multi-state chain.
I think there may have been a few tears of joy.
That is not something we see everyday praise the LORD!
It was hours before it was cleaned up. We prayed for the driver and the responders. That could not have been easy to correct.
This is what happened after Tabitha cleaned out her dresser…
And here she is working on school.
She’s closing in on 10 years old. And she is a delightful young lady.
God had a little surprise up His sleeve this morning. Such majesty!
I texted my friend Anna to make sure she was taking it in, as well.
We had some awesome sunrises day after day in NY. The way our house is situated, we don’t get as many of these views. This was a special treat!
If you know our family, you know that CBS has been a staple in these Disciples’ lives since before most of them were born. Only Stewart did not attend as a newborn.
As a matter of fact, in 2021, as John would sit on the computer looking at prospective jobs around the country, I would sit in the chair nearby and use my phone to check to see if there was a CBS in driving distance.
Yes – it has been that important to me.
When we moved here, the closest option was the CBS in Greenwood, SC. It was a 61 minute drive from our house to the church, and we did it most weeks (we took February off last year for a driving break). We knew we couldn’t keep up that trek this year with the very large amount of time it took and the cost of gas. I was delighted to learn a CBS went live just 20 minutes from our house, however, I couldn’t make the Thursday mornings work in the fall around the classes Tabitha was registered for.
Then – just days before Christmas, it clicked — with Tab’s upcoming schedule, the girls and I might be able to make it fit in our week. I reached out and they DID have room for us. It is a very small class, but they did have space in the children’s program! When I told the girls, I wasn’t sure if they’d be up for a schedule change so late in the school year. Their reaction? Utter gladness! They were delighted!
So here we are. Our first day at Greenville CBS Day Class.
Like a giant GOD HUG!
It is directly across the street from BJU, too!
