At Six Flags, Ellie dominated the rock climbing wall...
SWEET faces!!
~Housing an Intern: We have a guest in our home for the summer. Mark. He is 22 and he is doing an internship at our church for youth pastoring. He's away this week with the kids at camp. We don't see too much of him because he's been very busy with our church; but he's fun and he's got a heart for God.
~Father's Day: I spent the majority of the day in bed with my Ellie who's been sick with a kidney infection. Looked through pictures of my dad, and allowed myself to feel the sadness and ache that comes from missing him. I know it won't be forever. I know I will get to a point when most of what I can recall are happy, good memories and it won't hurt so much. This year was not that year.
~Friends moving away: I am not one that really loves change. I know that God has a purpose and plan for everyone and I also know that the Brewer family moving away isn't the end of the world. It still hurts. My husband has taken a strong liking to that Mike Brewer. And Shontell.... well, sometimes I feel sad for all the people I know who don't know her. She's that great.
~Husband traveling: Not something that ever makes me happy; but I am well seasoned in my traveling husband during his busy work months and I no longer complain about it. I appreciate how hard he works for me and our family. I came home from Sacramento the other night so that I could see him for a few hours before he left again to work in the middle of nowhere. I was SO tired when I got home, and when I went upstairs there was a bubble bath with candles waiting for me. He's kind of amazing.
~Waking up at 4 ayyyemmm: Starbucks time starts early. Time for bed.
