Memory Lane. Thankful for this guy and friends who saw fit to deem me an honorary Pi Phi |
– If this is my thank you for hosting reunion, I\’ll do it every year
– \”God shots\” in Numbers – God hates complaining, and he also (sometimes) gives very specific instructions
– Blue tassels on garments – \”so you will remember all the commands of the Lord.\” I\’m not the only one who needs constant reminders. (also from Numbers)
circa \’94-95 |
– He bought this outfit for real
– Adam\’s mom making sure we\’re making senior baseball memories one way or another
Goodness there\’s a lot of seniors |
– A boy and his dog
– Celebrating John\’s signing
OK Wesleyan-bound |
– Hud\’s fav is blooming
– These showed up on my window sill, with a \”please don\’t move the lettuce stalks mom, they\’re so pretty.\” I\’ll let you guess which kid
(hint – blonde nature lover) |
– Bran asking Daboo if she needed help with anything – and she did!
– Essie\’s darling, tiny find
– How he multi-tasks while on a conference call
– This bird, this nest. I am inspired.
– \”You have not been left to secure your own future, because God in his grace has secured an end to your story more glorious than you can grasp.\” – P. Tripp
– A continued letting go of (and crashing of) false idols
– Hud – Salutatorian. Wow wow wow. That the Lord saw it fit to publicly honor his hard work and much sacrifice. Thank you, Father.
– Both girls signed up for two weeks at Kanakuk – I am just giddy they get to experience Kamp.
– Corbin wearing a certain baseball hat for the first time since Jan 2019. I had no idea.
– All kids home for Mother\’s day, along with both grandmoms. Corbin planning lunch, even with being gone the last 3 days with my BU friends here. Sweet words around the table, all four kids with tears. Joy\’s note.
Olive wood rolling pin I\’d had my eye on – tricky for Corbin to get during Corona but he managed |
– Kanakuk AND Sky Ranch CO open this summer!
– My discouragement, Corbin\’s timely and comforting words. Just right.
– Reminders that I care more about living under our means than I care about trendy clothes and home decor. And that I care more about my children\’s hearts and maturity than about outward performance and reputation. Sometimes these feel like upside down truths, but they are the truth.
– Giving people the benefit of the doubt – worth it. Especially when they do the same for me.
– B\’s lunch
– \”Never forget that what God required you couldn\’t do. Christ did it for you. His grace is your hope.\” – P. tripp
– Driving east to 30A…
Look to the Lord and his strength; seek his face always. Remember the wonders he has done, his miracles… 1 Chronicles 16:11-12
