unPLANNED

Today started with a roar!  I had planned to get up and take the Suburban back to my sister that I borrowed yesterday, go to work for a couple of hours, come home to cook for family tomorrow, and then chill.  Rick offered to take the car back on his way to a clients office - YES - I can sleep a little longer.  The phone rang around 9 am as I was soaking in the bed watching some TV - it was Rick's mom and dad on their way over to visit.  

Needless to say it did not start off very well.  There has been some family tension during the last several months (maybe 27 years to be exact). The Richard Mitchell's have felt un-accepted and the Bob Mitchell's have felt un-wanted.  The conclusion after several hours of talking, tears, explanations, he-said she-said, and prayer was to move forward.  Let the past be gone.  There are still fences to mend with the siblings and grands but it is all a step in the right direction. 

The Richard Mitchell's (Rick, Lisa, Richard, Leslie, Joanna, David, Wesley, Spencer, Josiah, Caleb, Maleah, Kainaan, Elijah, and Libby) will celebrate Thanksgiving together tomorrow and give thanks and praise to our Heavenly Father for all of our many many blessings and each other.  Thank you God that You are our Restorer and Comfort.  

Scatter Christ
