One Year Today

Somehow, we still believe that God is good. And that is a little miracle in itself.

We miss him so much.

Exciting Stuffs

Here is a darling little baby hat I just finished for my friend's brand-new baby (who is also darling, by the way):

Yes, the baby is a girl and yes, that is my hand pretending to be a baby's head :). Hope it's not to small . . .

And behind the hat is something much more exciting!

Hurray! It's a drum! And a lovely little one with a nice tone!

Whew, to much happiness for one person . . .

Change

I've been thinking about it a lot lately. Strange how you think things will be a certain way "forever". They never will be, and that's a good thing.

This says what I mean better than I can. It's from the blog Indexed.

And Now, A Story by Sullivan, Age 4

"There was a BIIIG polar bear. And she hit me with her mouth, on my tounge! And then I fainted."

Cherokee's Laws

Forget Murphy, these are mine:

1. The night you first wear your new scrubs you will get blood/vomit/feces/urine, etc on them.
Same goes for new shoes.

2. Wearing white = major trauma. Or at least a very messy child birth.

3. Never, ever, ever make the following statements: "I hope we have a quiet night", "No one better be in labor", or (worst) "I hope he/she doesn't die on my shift, I just can't handle it tonight".

4. If you have no tie to put your hair up, you will inevitably be involved in some activity requiring it to be out of your face - i.e. messy wound, C-section, etc.

5. The night you put on no makeup and do nothing with your hair, you will care for an attractive guy your age. Don't worry, he did something stupid to get there anyways, you don't want to date him.

6. Your co-workers will always be there to help you, if you are always there to help them.

Ya'll may think I'm crazy, but it's true :)

Mosh PIt

I went to a Toby Mac show a few days ago, and now I've got something to say.

So here it is:

No matter what it looks like to others, we worshiped there. Worship happens in the heart, but it flows into words and actions. And there was some pretty exciting, adrenalin-charged worship there. No matter how silly we looked or sounded, God doesn't care. He looks at our hearts.

It was a great experience.
