Is this...
What I feel when I look at this picture...
What my heart feels..
This "vacation" was the most liberating, heart fueling, good people-filled, fun, beautiful week and two days I've ever experienced. Last year, Manda and I went out to see our cousin Ness who is living in Kansas City, Missouri. It was February 13th- 22nd, 2009 and before we were even seated on the plane to leave, we were blessed with wonderful people who were gracious enough to offer- the captains offered! - to let us sit up in front of the plane for a bit and look around at all the cool thinga-ma-jiggies that they use to fly! Ness didn't know that I was also coming and as she was loading Manda's luggage, I came running out of the airport yelling, "Wait for me!!" She screamed, ran to me and started crying. Our time was full of freezer weather, layers, fake accents and laughing so hard our stomachs hurt, hot chocolate, music, scripture, antique shops, friends, games, God, Ness, the prayer room, roommates, hikes, the park of fountains, Noah, the Kansas City Police Station (long story haha), hand and foot, cooking, the art museum, Kansas, fellowship, musicians, the Bronx, breakfast with friends and so much more. Seeing this picture makes me feel what I felt when I was there and what I still feel now. It reminds me of the mark that Kansas City has left on my heart forever and the good friends that God has blessed me with.
