Comments:

Just to let you know I did try to comment on your post...or at least some of the posts.  For some reason I have not been able to comment on people's post.  So , Lisl's picture was hilarious.  Evie's post was sweet and intense and I enjoyed it.  Arla's posts were nice summer thoughts.  Charlottes posts were perfect....I'm going to have to try those muffins on my guests next week.  Dena's post made me tired...how DO you do all those things in a day?!!!  I hope Geneva is having good experiences in LA....I went to the chicago meetings and did some in Baltimore in my days of doing those things.  And I really enjoyed it.  God be close to you.  And I'm sure there are other posts I've read and wanted to comment but now the inspiration has left me. 
    We just told our first set of guests good-bye and our next set arrives Thursday evening.  And then the next set will arrive on Tues of next week.  And then I don't know who's next.  Maybe Ivan's for that wedding in August?   We love our guests!  And when you come to see us,  stay a day and do our life with us for a bit....we love your visits!

Happy Birthday Keagan

Keagan turned three while we were in Idaho. So we made a cake and celebrated with the Skrivseth cousins this year. He was enthralled watching me make the cake. Had to have his little hand on that hat! gazing in adoration at it. Just about ready to blow those candles. He kept telling me that we couldn't sing Happy Birthday though. He's easily embarrassed! Silly guy! I rather like my little three year.

Forgiveness

 Forgiveness  Forgiveness has bones It has a brain It uses logic  And common sense  Forgiveness goes about Finding a common ground. It shows up in common places. It happens unsuspected. Forgiveness allows one to Name the thing that happened. Forgiveness gives one a way To see it for what it was. Forgiveness provides for the  Empty spaces in conversation  And allows one to listen  And grieve outside of one’s own experience. Forgiveness walks into a situation  And remembers. But walks with peace And knows calmness. Forgiveness has an earpiece  On the heart  And a microphone  At his mouth Saying the words that Forgiveness has given him. Forgiveness doesn’t walk with fear. Forgiveness looks alone. But He’s always always  Hand in hand with gentleness and kindness. Forgiveness can stand alone though. It doesn’t melt away or dissipate  With time. Forgiveness is that little happy wren  On your shoulder  Forgiveness sings...

Let me tell you how God answers prayer

      Did I ever write on here that I am teaching school at our little church school?  I absolutely love it and find that it's been a neat way to feel useful and invest in our bubble.  But I am requiring my kids to tell stories and write them and read them.  And right now they are in a four week story writing assignment and I began to wonder what I thought I was doing requiring something of them that I am not really proficient at nor am I very knowledgable about.       So for my story to write  let me tell you a little bit about how God answers prayer.  Sometime I feel like I should write Jeanie's whole story.  But not this time.             Jeanie's been having focal seizures.  We don't know when they started.  All we know is that we were advised to go get her growing pain/ leg cramps looked into and it started the beginning of many tests of which we still aren't done with....
