Amy had a sleepover the past two days, to celebrate her 10th birthday. The total of four girls built a canopy using our chairs, sheets, and ropes; then they slept under it. It was quite a masterful job.
What fun it is to be 10 years old and having 2 days of fun with your good friends!
This saying is trustworthy:
If we died with him [Christ Jesus], we will also live with him.
If we endure, we will also reign with him.
If we deny him, he will also deny us.
If we are unfaithful,. . .
What is God’s response if we are unfaithful? It would be fair that if…
I was thinking last night how difficult it is to be a mother.
When your children are little, you are pulled to them by their complete need for you. You have no choice but to care for them 24 hours a day. You hover over them to make sure they are safe, you decide what they eat and what they wear. You clean up their messes out of both ends. Alas, you can’t help but love them completely. You hug them tight smothering them with kisses.
Audrey took this picture in the desert. I thought it is kind of nice.
The time finally came.
We moved Elliot in to the dorms at USC.
We met two brothers rooming together across the hall. Nice boys, one a horn performance major (he talked to Audrey about the program) and the other a math and physics major – maybe a good help to Elliot.
Elliot just came back from hiking Half Dome in Yosemite. He made it to the top.

The last time he did anything physical was last summer. He hiked up Mt. Whitney and he made it to the top. He…
Elliot is off to Yosemite with some people from church to hike Half Dome.
Audrey went with some from the Solar Car Team to watch the filming of a Lexus commercial with the solar car, somewhere in the desert near Las Vegas.
Amy and I are home, trying to decide what we should do. We have many hobbies – sewing, scrapbooking, crafts, reading. But we feel rather unmotivated. It’s too quiet.
My friend’s husband is a cancer surviver. The physical scars are “altars to God” that remind her of what God has brought them through. They remind her of what truly matters in life.
When we get caught in the mundane worries of life, think about what God has brought us through. In the end, what really matters?
“It used to be only death and taxes were inevitable. Now it’s shipping and handling too. “
I ordered some pamphlets for $18.99, shipping was another $8.50. Doesn’t seem right to increase the total cost by almost 50%, just for shipping and handling. But I couldn’t find a store near by that had them.
Who’s On First for the Next Generation!
George: Condi! Nice to see you. What’s happening?
Condi: Sir, I have the report here about the new leader of China.
George: Great. Lay it on me.
Condi: Hu is the new leader of China.
George: That’s what I want to know.
Condi: That’s what I’m telling you.…
