Looks like it’s going to be another beautiful day! I walked around my yard yesterday to see if anything was starting to come up again and I was pleasantly surprised to see that my first spring flower is already in bloom, and lots of others are turning green. That gets me excited for spring. Yesterday we had a good time walking at the park, was an absolutely beautiful day…maybe today we’ll go as well. tonight is Lydia’s violen lesson, the last one before contest on Saturday, and then tonight is a ladies function at my church. I’m doing that grace talk that I put on this blog several weeks back. So it should be a good evening for us.
I did find out that my computer is finished…however I also found out that the CD/DVD drawers don’t work anymore or are contaminated…so that sounds like I’ll probably still have more work done on it. The good thing is I haven’t spent as much time on the computer lately and I think that’s probably good.

Today I’m praying that my home is covered with God’s love. I’m praying that my two daughters love each other through their actions, words and thoughts. I’m praying that the feeling that their might be something wrong with my hot water heater won’t steal my peace. I’m praying that God will give me wisdom to know how to deal with each kid today that I see. That He’ll give me perception into the many layers of life that they each have going on. I’m praying that He’ll give me musical ability to be able to get my kids to do well at contest on Saturday. I’m praying that all of the little things swarming around in my brain that need to be accomplished will find their rest in God. I’m praying for four Nicaraguan women that I pray for everyday. I’m praying for my brother Phil. Praying for my father in law Bob. I’m praying for wisdom and strength.

It’s confirmed…Lauren just came out of the bathroom and said…”mom, why don’t we have any hot water?” So…I guess I need to deal with that today…I actually just told her to go hop in the hot tub:)…ok she’ll probably smell a little like chlorine today but…compared to taking an ice cold shower it seemed like it made sense:).

Have a great day!
Love,
Ruth
