What a roller coaster!
We can only seek for His Will to be done....receive the Blessings with "Thanksgiving", and ask for strength, comfort, and understanding when it doesn't seem to "Go our Way". I'm sure Moses' mother didn't feel "Blessed" by losing her child, but The Father had "Special Plans and Purpose' for him.
It does sound like your feet are finding some solid ground to stand on....give Him the Praise and Glory....
but want to purchase a small chicken coop and build a much better run for them.
