Good morning!
I have a few minutes before heading out the door for my run. I'm looking forward to it this morning--the air is cool and lovely and running through the green and treed trails in my neighborhood is a delight, even when I feel tired and get a stitch in my side (hate it when that happens!). I find that if I keep my mind occupied with what I'm seeing, or if I think about what God is teaching me or showed me in my quiet time, or if I pay close attention to whatever I'm listening to, I don't notice the tired so much.
Emma's already up this morning. She and Mom are having a date day--going to the museum together. She is so excited!
That means that Audrey and I get a day together too. We're going to do some necessary things--like mopping the floor and laundry, but also some fun things--like putting together an art kit for school, gathering things for her camping backpack (we are headed to the Tetons in a week or two with Mom and Dad for some more camping), and finishing up a needlework project she's been stitching away at.
Toben's off to Colorado Springs for the day. (Have I mentioned that before? I can't remember! He's --
**oops! had to stop and look out the window at the gorgeous coyote who just trotted down the sidewalk and around the corner**
-- consulting again and gathering contracts. His primary contract is with Family Talk, the new ministry that James and Ryan Dobson have begun. He's working mostly with Ryan, a longtime friend, doing marketing/branding and radio production. Toben's also pursuing some other contracts, so prayers for work are still much appreciated!)
Anyway, that's our day around here. What are you up to?
Good morning, Joanne,
Tuesday holds for me a meeting in a few minutes with an educator whose opinion I trust about some concerns I have about my 4th grade girl. Pray that we will walk in wisdom on how to help her with the anxieties, fears and lack of confidence she has where school is concerned.
Thank you, as always, for the sweet posts that remind me to SEE. And for pointing out scripture in ways I may or may not have thought of before.
Just thanks.
Dori

I enjoy reading your blog. I was trying to find out what kind of mental illness you are dealing with in your marriage. I will read more when the baby's not here. Doylene
