half honeymoon. whole love.

Last week, Dustin and I traveled all the way to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic for our week-long Honeymoon.  HOT sun, soft sand, turquoise ocean water...it was beautiful (pictures to come)!!  Unfortunately, on Day 2, we received a sad bit of news that caused our trip to be cut short.  My husband's brother passed away December 1, 2009.  The entire flight back home Wednesday and the 6-hour drive to Texas the next day was filled with unanswered questions and confusion, silence and pain.  Is there a right or wrong thing to say/do in a situation like that?  My heart aches for the family...the wife, the kids, the parents, the brothers, the friends.  The honeymoon was cut in half, but the love remained whole.  "And now just as you trusted Christ to save you, trust Him, too, for each day's problems: live in vital union with Him." [Colossians 2:6]
