Happy Mothers Day to this beautiful lady that I am so incredibly blessed to be able to call my Mama :) :) :) Thank you for the twenty years you've spent patiently and continually explaining to me that sometimes there aren't detailed directions and extreme planning will not solve all of life's problems :P Thank you for all the times you've listened on the other end of the line when I've called from Erie (with the wind howling in the background) freaking out about something. And, thank you for always directing my heart back to Christ and his unfailing love :) 


"Impatience is a form of unbelief. It's what begin to feel when we start to doubt the wisdom of God's timing or the goodness of God's guidance. It springs up in our hearts when our plan is interrupted or shattered. . . . The opposite of impatience is not a glib denial of loss. It's a deepening, ripening, peaceful willingness to wait for God in the unplanned place of obedience, and to walk with God at the unplanned pace of obedience - to wait in His place and go at His pace." ~John Piper

On the fourth day of tech week, the very hungry dancer ate through one apple, one pepper and a bunch of grapes . . . all in one afternoon.
