New blanket for Jeanie

One morning this past week I was working at the computer when I heard Jeanie screaming this really wild scream. And I smelled something. I ran. She had crawled up onto the counter by the burning candle with her favorite blanket. It was on fire and the box of Kleenex was on fire and it was all flaming up around her arm and face and hair. And she just sat there and screamed! So I did all the right stuff to get it out including doing some of my own screaming. And all was well. Except for her favorite blanket. So last night I was shoveling through my sewing stuff and I found these two garage sale pieces of fabric. So today we have a new awesome blanket that she is thrilled with! Never mind it's frogs and tadpoles! It's totally her. And I'm thankful for a house and a whole girl. Angels are definitely on high alert at this house! Thank you God!

In My Worship Place

Last time I posted I mentioned being in a quiet spot. It's curious to me how one can be in a quiet spot internally but super busy externally and then be in a quiet season externally but Internally be in a season of seeking and crying and lonely. Zerrick and Susanna's reception in our yard is over and my many siblings showing up for us was a cherry on top. It felt like a relaxed good reception and I spent most of it watching people and listening in on little groups of chatter. And then the twelve hours with my siblings on Saturday. God worked it out so I could have tiny little snitches of chat that I could be assured that I got the most of the gift of them even being here. We all stood around and prayed and cried and sobbed together for a short time before Bruce's left. Healing. I still feel emotional about it. And now it's qu...

A few things...

Okay, I have a whole pile of pictures I'm going to post one of these days. In the mean time....a few more questions to add to my last post.... 1. What do people mean when they say things like, " He/she spoke peace/ blessing/ love/truth or whatever into my heart? How does one get truth spoke into ones heart by another person? Okay, now I expect to hear someone defend themselves for saying this or else clarify to me why it sounds so off the wall......no reading this w/out some input! 2. What else? I was asking about what does it mean to have deeper relationship w/ God. So everyone said ya that's a good thing to desire. Here's my thought. You either have a relationship w/ God or you don't. So then who decides if it's a deeper relationship than....see how can you know? Can you compare? That won't work because God doesn't work like that....putting us on brackets of who is most spiritual. The only way you can use the term in having a deeper relationship w/ Go...

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.
