The leaves are changing...

... and I am so happy! I love the fall. Here in New Mexico, the trees are becoming bright with reds, oranges, and yellows, and the mornings are crisp. Recent evening sunsets have taken my breath away. Soon, trick-or-treaters decked out in adorable costumes will be ringing the doorbell, and before we know it, we'll be sharing the holidays with family and friends.

As graduate students, Aaron and I often talk about the future. We dream about what life will be like when we have both completed school and are not trying to juggle so many responsibilities. It seems so far away sometimes, and yet, as the leaves change, I'm realizing that this season of our lives will be over before we know it. I'm thankful to God for His creative design and for being our constant through times of change.

"Eternal God, unchanging
Mysterious and unknown
Your boundless love, unfailing
In grace and mercy shown...
Hallelujah -- Glory be to our great God!"
(Todd Agnew, "Our Great God")

driveway -- the leaves
look even more red in
person!
