Wake up, God, move yourself,

Today has been an interesting day so I figured I needed to remember the good.

I love when...
Noodle says he's mine.
My friends call me Bethy or Amanada calls me Any.
Noodle thinks he knows how to do some thing.
Ra tells me her stories that have no point.
Bacon talks about balls.
The brother stands next to me and stands as tall as he can. Yes he is quite a bit taller then me.
Sis tells me how to take care of her babies.
Noodle mimics what I say esp the tone. I have taken to screaming things or saying things like a crazy person when he is around.
I get a day off to drink tea and hang out with the buddies.
I get a day off to drink tea and be alone.
The boys are at my house.
I actually have time to throw dinner parties.

Auntie Poodle your Noodle has arrived!

 I love pj days all you need is a good cup of tea and a couple of good buddies. Cookies don't hurt either.

 The ache is subsiding and I am doing. And being.

Yoga and Noodle are the best!!

and I ache for my heart like some tin man

i have a new nephew

he is precious and i love him.

daniel is adjusting well, he loves his brother and i cant wait till he is old enough to play with.

These days I feel a bit overwhelmed and ill-equipped. The promises of the LORD are true and He will prove faithful.

Psa 18:30 As for God, His way is perfect; The word of the LORD is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him.

2 Sa 22:31 "As for God, his way is perfect. All the LORD's promises prove true. He is a shield for all who look to him for protection.

Phl 1:6 being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

Dying or killer immune system?

So here's the thing I work in this hospital where people die. They get better and live too but the definitely die.

I am pretty sure I am either going to die of some incredibly awful and gross disease or I have a super immune system and will live forever.

Nurses are gross and should be avoided...


Just saying.

Oh how heart wrenching.

"This love is not sentimental but heartwrenching, the most difficult, and the most beautiful thing in the world" -Shane Claiborne

I once thought I knew how to love. I actually thought I was pretty good at this thing called love. But only sometimes I don't fail. The message from the beginning is that we should love each other. It shouldn't be this difficult. Do I even rememeber His love?

I am practicing being and not just doing.

Joy

Last night I went to my parents house after work. I always feel sorry for those that don't have a good relationship with their family. Mine absolutely blows me away. They are crazy and sometimes make me crazy but I always know when I need it, they are there. And sometimes even when I don't need them they are still there. Work yesterday SUCKED but it all didn't matter when I walked into their house and all I can hear is "BETHY, BETHY, BETHY"at the top of his little lungs. I love that voice. I love when he laughs especially while hiding, silly kid doesn't understand that you're supposed to be quite while hiding. Yesterday he farts then looks at me and says "Bethys turn pffffft" while pointing at my bottom. I almost died laughing. I think I will keep him.
