Double Play...

Baseball season is back and I am not ready. In my mind maybe but physically not so much. In good time though. My first game of the season I was forced to run full throttle to home being chased by another one of my wild fast running teammates- exhausting! Last Sunday I made a double play which was a nice way to end the game may I add and everyone cheered, Amber was in on our double play so we call ourselves "The Dream Team" - oh ya!

In baseball and in life I am learning that I may not always feel ready but I am equipped and with God I will be fine. I need to remember that I always do make it to home plate even when I don't think my legs are moving and that I can hit the ball. Just like in baseball this applies to life, when I think that one person will be just too hard to visit they surprise me by being so welcomming and excited that I called on them.

So the moral is this - What do I really know anyways? - Not a lot, just that through Christ I can do anything so I better get used to it!

Happy Tuesday.

One Year Anniversary!



I have been here a year today! One whole year and I cannot believe it! I sat in my ladies bible study this afternoon and praised God for my time here thus far. About a week ago I found myself feeling quite weird and realized that it is because I am not leaving this time, so far anyway..I am actually staying..


PS- It snowed today!

Blooming..



All I want is a flower bed..a garden..some good dirt and cool rain. I have been in that state of mind where all I want is life, blooms and greenery...I want that outside feeling I get when I have been in the yard all day raking, mowing..weeding. I don't even know if I know what that feeling really means..I don't think I have fully experienced it yet. I guess it is more that I want to experience that look I see on Moms face every year as she waters her pots, plays with her water hoses, and weeds her garden. That look of complete contentment. I want that.
