Galactic Thunder

It's been a big week.

Saturday was P's 8th birthday party. We also went to G's favorite restaurant (Buffalo Wild Wings) in his honor and decorated his grave for his birthday - which is next week.

Sunday we did a little family birthday for P and went to Air and Space Museum with UN and AA.

Tuesday was P's 8th birthday.

Today we bought a new car. I bought a new car. A brand, spankin new car. Never have I done this before.

The car is a great provision - new and safe and dependable. But even more significant is that I made this purchase on my own. God gave me the confidence to make this decision. To take ownership of my life. To be in charge. To decide and not worry about what others think. It's something I've been working on for so long in counseling. And I executed it today.

I am worn out. There have been so many emotions. But I did it. And the car's name is (in honor of G and his ridiculous naming): Galactic Thunder.
