April’s first Tuesday

Outside my window...the return of cold weather. Again. Sigh.

I am thinking...God’s sovereignty might just be much broader and deeper than I ever realized

I am wondering...exactly what I want to say about Bible memorization for Katie’s blog

I am thankful for...the unique personalities God placed inside my two girls

In the learning rooms...we’ll be finished on Thursday!

I am tired of...doing school, which is perfectly okay at this point

I am eating...carrots and feeling good about it mentally but not particularly enjoying it sensually

I am appreciating...how incredibly organized Morgan is with planning her wedding

I am sending...Jenna and me to CPR/first aid training next week

I am wearing...a 2003 yellow LIFT t-shirt, beige shorts, wrapped in a blue snuggie

I am creating...a reference letter for a sweet teen girl at church

I am going...to work on an alternate backup plan for my computer, yes, I am, I am.

I am looking forward to...watching Jenna’s drama performance this weekend

I am reading...Love Wins

I am hoping...that Grace prevails between two precious friends

I am hearing...thunder unfolding across the sky (and loving it)

I am realizing...that deleting things from my to-do list without doing them is almost as satisfying as deleting them because I did do them

I am studying...Michelle’s Lent devo each morning and thinking about Dianna doing the same

Around the house...new dresses are piling up, an unusual sight

I am praying...for removal of irrational fears about the El Salvador trip

I am pondering these words...
     “The essence of loving living as a follower of Jesus isn't in trying harder but in enjoying more.” - Sam Storms

I am planning...for Morgan & Fuller’s visit this weekend

A picture for thought...I love the craziness of trees. They never bore me. Isn’t this a marvelously interesting trunk!
