:. the wonderboys .:

Well, those LoveBoys are spending the night at grandma's house tonight! I'm happy to give Josh and Emily a night to themselves. And of course I'm waaaaay excited to have those boys around all evening and into the morning. I LOVE waking up (early!) to sleepy-eyed, pajamed boys!!
I'm ready! Got some new cool cars to play with. . . stocked up on Rice Chex . . . practiced my cartwheels.
Yep, I'm ready!

:. jehovah jireh .:

Jehovah Jireh - "the LORD who sees"

And if He sees, you can be sure He knows.

And if He knows, you can be sure He cares.

And if He cares, you can be sure He's doing something about it.

In His own time.

In His own way.

For your good.

And for His glory.

:. if wishes were horses .:

I've always thought life should come with a soundtrack.
You would know when to really be afraid, and the happy times would seem even happier with the right background music.
Well, after playing with Photoshop, I've decided life should also come with an airbrush.

That's just a no-brainer.

:. spring ahead .:

so excited to turn our clocks ahead this weekend!

Here's a peek at what is just around the corner:
flowers and blue skies

and baby animals

and spring trees bursting with bloom

and baby birds

and flowers and baby birds together

and lilacs. musn't forget the lilacs

aaaahhhhh, spring!

:. for the record .:

1. baby bee lambie pie naked yarn is SO HARD to work with . . . yet perfect. Only for you, Liam, only for you.
2. for those of you who've asked (NO ONE), Mozart seems to be just fine. Not sure what his little asthmatic episode was all about.
3. I am so happy that spring is sneaking up on us. Mmmmm, I can feel the sunshine already.
4. all that honking that geese do when they fly overhead is one of my favorite sounds. It just makes me laugh.
5. I really should never order the large coffee. Stick with the medium; that's plenty o' caffeine.
6. flags at half-staff are melancholy and beautiful at the same time. They always make me choke up just a little.
7. I am a sucker for cello music. Seriously, if you stuck a cello in gangsta rap, I would probably think it hauntingly wonderful.
8. finding out the sex of your baby through an ultra-sound is like finding out what you're getting for Christmas . . . . in August.
9. I'm sorry that the Losties are stuck in the 70's. Never cared for the 70's the first time around; I really don't like TV shows set in that time period. (Well, except for That 70's Show. That's pretty hilarious, so . . . never mind.)
10. I pretty much have the greatest family in the world.
