Moments in the events—Friday’s Fave Five

Look back over your week.
What were some favorite moments?

Here are five sweet moments from five different events in my week. 

1. A new song (singing on Sunday)
We learned When the Night Is Falling at our monthly afternoon singing. I’ve always loved the deep imagery in Zephaniah 3:17 of God singing over me.

When the night is falling and the day is done,
I can hear You calling, “Come.”
I will come while you sing over me.
“How I love you, child, I love you.”

2. Mama Jo’s attentiveness (concert on Monday)My mother-in-law rarely misses any events that Jenna has. Monday night was no exception. She and her friend drove over to listen to Jenna’s spring choral concert, which was lovely, btw.

3. Snack break (shopping on Tuesday)Both Jenna and I hate to shop. But on Tuesday we forced ourselves to do it anyway.

Both Jenna and I love to eat. So a food incentive kept us going. It’s been awhile since I’ve had a treat as delicious as this Cinnabon! I ate the whole thing.

4. Laughing with my sisters (tea on Wednesday)My two lovely sisters and I attended the Mother’s Day Tea at my mom’s assisted living on Wednesday. We enjoyed time with our mom, and talking to family members of the other residents, piecing together more of their stories.

And, of course, laughing with each other.
Being in this together definitely helps.

5. Boxes and words (disaster relief on Thursday)At first I said, “No.” Too much activity already (see #1-4 above).

But I’m glad Jenna and I changed our minds and went with three others to Nashville to pack food boxes for flood victims. I’d hated to have missed it.

But I’d also have missed participating in some fantastic conversations up there and back with some very interesting church family.
