Canceled and Delayed Flights

Well, The boys are stuck in Seattle. Alaska Air says they can't get them out till Dec 25th at 8am. Which means they won't be here till lunch time on Christmas day. AAAAHHHH! They are living it up at the hotel, but the boys are disappointed. They were so looking forward to waking up at home on Christmas morning. This was the one thing Jared was afraid of happening. He asked me several times this week if they would be back for Christmas. I guess it could be worse. At least they will be home on Christmas. There is always hope that flights will open up tomorrow, Tuesday or Wednesday. So, please keep us in your prayers!!!

Khun Ya (Jerome's mom) is also stuck in Seattle. Right now her flight just says that it is delayed and should be boarding shortly. So I am just watching to see if I have to go to the airport tonight or if Jerome needs to make room for one more in the hotel room. Either way I guess she will be with one or two of her grandchildren for a few days. She was suppose to leave AK on the 28Th, so this kind of messes up her plans for the holidays too.

How is it that Alaska Air is the only one to cancel flights when other airlines were still coming here from Seattle?

We are still very blessed. Family, gifts, traditions... are all part of Christmas, but even with spoiled plans we have reason to celebrate. The only gift that matters is Jesus.
Thank you, Lord, for your Christmas gift to us so many years ago. Your Grace is still sufficient for us today. You are our hope of life, love, and many more Christmases to come. Help me to remember you this week instead of the pity party that I have been throwing for the last few hours, LOL.


KEEP PRAYING!!!
