Family interruptions

Kevin just told me a bit ago we're having a goodbye dinner for his sister Sherri and her family at his parents house....the things I have to do tonight will have to wait til morning. It was nice to spend some time getting to know them these past few weeks... they're great people and have 2 great boys, always smiling and excited to try new things. It's not ideal to be so far away from family but as I'm growing to realize...the appreciation for them is much greater when you're not able to see them everyday. Brandon and Emily showed up a little bit ago...a day early, they're going to run the bait route Saturday morning so Kevin and I can go to my family picnic in Pine City....we'll leave tomorrow afternoon and meet up with my youngest and her boyfriend...one relative leaves another one comes...these little interruptions in my life, the ones I think are going to blow my schedule...well, not only do they always end up being very, very good things...they remind me that my schedule is MY plan for my life...the interruptions are GOD'S plan for my life.
