PA- In the news and in my heart!

Today is the PA primaries! It's everywhere! I heard the word Pennsylvania today more than my very own name. I must admit that all this talk is making me a tad home sick. Just thought I would mention a few of the things I am day dreaming about today.

~ Looking out of my Dad's window into a beautiful painting of the Lord's creativity
~ Oh while I'm there a hug from my dad would be nice!
~ turkey hill Mint tea..... It's just sooo good
~ all my frequency pals!!! I miss you guys!
~ oh while I am there a good pre-service prayer!
~ Apt. #5 and the man upstairs!!!
~ Heather's music blaring in our cubicle and beyond!
~ Jaime and a greek pizza from the pizza grill!
~ And ABC 27 News.... I just Love Alicia Richards!
~ My brother playing Linus in Charlie Brown (wish I could be there to see it)

Just a few......

Music and Memories


I was visting my friends myspace today when I heard this song. Immediately memories overwhelmed my heart. When I was in high school this was one of those songs of surrender that I would play over and over during my devotions. Just wanted to share it with you.

Broken Things by Julie Miller

You can have my heart
Though it isn't new
It's been used and broken
And only comes in blue
It's been down a long road
And it got dirty on the way
If I give it to you will you make it clean
And wash the shame away

You can have my heart
If you don't mind broken things
You can have my life if you don't mind these tears
Well I heard that you make old things new
So I give these pieces all to you
If you want it you can have my heart

So beyond repair
Nothing I could do
I tried to fix it myself
But it was only worse when I got through
Then you walked into my darkness
And you speak words so sweet
And you hold me like a child
Till my frozen tears fall at your feet

April Fools



My friend Julie once told me about a prank that she pulled on her husband. While he was sleeping she painted his toenails! This April fools I decided to try it on Eric. He slept through the whole thing!
Through out the day I anxiously awaited the phone call from him. but there was none. So I came to the conclusion that he was going to be getting me back! Around lunch time he called to say that I got him good!
There was no getting me back....until next year!

Wilber

As most of you know I have longed for a good snow this winter. This weekend was amazing!! It was 68 degrees. I took Ella on her first walk at the park on Saturday. On Sunday we had a picnic lunch in the park. i even painted my toenails cause I had to wear flip flops.
And then it happened. Tuesday morning I woke up to 8 inches of snow!!!!! It was so great. The funny thing is that not every one in Springfield got snow! Some people only got a couple of inches but the down town arae (where I reside) got bombarded with SNOW! ( I know God had His hand on that ;)
Today I played in the only snow that was at the house that I nanny for (on their back porch in the shade) I made a snowman with the kids. Here was the problem.....I used Katelyn's mittens for his hands so Katelyn was screaming MITTENS!! MINE!!! I asked William what he wanted to name the snowman he said I don't want to name it I want to destroy it! And so I named him Wilber...he lasted about 5 minutes. Katelyn stole one of his mittens and William took his toy backhoe through him....Meet Wilber!

Happy V- Day!

I hope you all had a great day. I just love Valentine's Day. Here is a pic from the photo shot I had with the kids this week. We made some fun cards for their parents.
Tonight Eric and I went to see Casablanca at a restored theater downtown. Wow, it was so cool! If you are from Springfield you need to check out the Gillioz.
