reflecting

In college, I was in a service club, Pi Kappa Sigma. At one of our meetings we got into groups and talked about how we saw God that day or week. It seems like you could come up with a list of things to talk about, but what I like most about the "exercise" is it really makes you stop and think about your day and all the ways you are blessed no matter what kind of day or week you've had. You can have a completely rotten day and still find one way (big or small) that God has worked in your life. He is always working.

What a simple, beautiful question, "How did you see God today?"

Mine for today (and everyday really) is my dog, Watson. He is precious. After a long, tiring day at work I always come home to my precious pup who is always excited to see me. I could be gone for one minute or hours at a time and he's always at the door to greet me. This may be corny, but I think dogs are gifts from God. Some dogs are really useful for daily life (seeing-eye dogs, sheep dogs, etc) but my dog is merely for looking cute. He keeps me company when Eric isn't here and is always available to give me puppy kisses. :)




So, how did YOU see God today? Just think about it.

Happy Birthday to my favorite brother!

Ok, so I'll admit. I only have one brother, but who's not to say he's not my favorite?!

He turned 26 today! Gosh, he's getting old!

Wish I could have been there to celebrate with him. Happy Birthday to him!!!!!!!!

Harry Potter!

Yes, I am a Harry Potter fan. I have read all the books, more than once and have seen all the movies. The last Harry Potter will come out at midnight, Friday (or Thursday depending on how you look at it) and Eric and I have tickets! We were supposed to go with Allison and Rachel, but when Rachel tried to get tickets they were already sold out! Bummmer!!!!

Thankfully, I don't work Friday and can stay out late without regretting it! I am very excited!
