I just realized, I'm a fair weather worshiper...

The past few days have been gorgeous! The kids and I have been enjoying it so much! Windows and doors wide open! Ignoring much of the housework, just enjoying nature and getting to know neighbors...

Today... I woke up to rain... My first thought "Uggg!!", my first online tweet was complaining about the weather...  But then, as I was loading my laundry into the washer, I was hit with the song "I will praise You in this storm" and realized, I am NEVER thankful for icky weather. How can I praise Him for the storms in my life, if I can't even find it in me to praise Him for the rain, snow or incredible heat we will probably get this summer...?

"THIS is the day that the Lord has made; I WILL be glad and REJOICE in it!!" (Psalm 118:24)

Give your Heart to Jesus

Cede just asked to have bangs cut b/c her hair keeps getting in her eyes.
Dustin insists it will make her bleed.
"No", Kitkat informs him there is no blood in her hair.
Dustin (just to be obstinate) says he wants to cut out his heart.
"No", exclaims Cede... you need to give your heart to Jesus!

If I could write down every conversation between these kids.. I could fill a book!! :)
