No Need to Say Goodbye...

Sorry for the lack of posts for a while…frankly there hasn’t been much to blog about at all lately! (I am slowly updating my old posts with pictures though, so keep checking back for those!)

Today, however, is a very sad post. Carissa, who has been with us for the past two months, left  this morning to go back to Canada…

We all miss you so much already Carissa, there were lots of tears from almost everyone in the car on the way back L L

But we’ll always remember the words from The Call;
there’s no need to say Goodbye……

~
It started out as a feeling,
Which then grew into a hope,
Which then turned into a quiet thought,
Which then turned into a quiet word.

And then that word grew louder and louder,
Till it was a battle cry…

I’ll come back when you call me,
No need to say Goodbye.

Just because everything’s changing,
Doesn’t mean its never been this way before.
All you can do is try to know who your friends are
As you head off to the war.

Pick a star on the dark horizon,
And follow the light….

You’ll come back when its over,
No need to say Goodbye.

Now we’re back to the beginning,
And its just a feeling that no one knows yet.
But just because they can’t feel it too
Doesn’t mean that you have to forget.

Let your memories grow stronger and stronger,
Till they’re before your eyes…

You’ll come back when they call you,
No need to say Goodbye.
~

Please pray for Carissa’s health and safety, she has lots of hours of traveling ahead of her!


Love you Ducky <3
