I think I'm finally back in the saddle after VBS. It's amazing what taking a week off work for VBS can really do for your stamina. Here's the small joys:
1) A successful VBS. I heard just this morning from my friend that a family in her small group sent their kiddos to our VBS and LOVED it. It's always nice to hear from people you don't know that it was enjoyable for the kiddos.
2) This child:
She is 100% in the mood to play in the water. Every night it is either the pool or the sprinkler. Last night it was the sprinkler. Afterward she decided she wanted some ice cream, but since ice cream is cold, she needed earmuffs for the chill.
3) Mid-week dates to the splash pad with my girl.
4) Trips to Oregon to see N and get away for a bit.
5) New books! I've been a complete reading kick lately. I've started the All Souls trilogy by Deborah Harkness. It's a mix between The DaVinci Code and the Sookie Stackhouse novels. I love them.
6) New possibilities. This past week I've been struggling in some areas, unsure of what God's plan is. I have no doubt that He has an amazing plan, I just can't see through the forest. Some small glimmers of light are shining through and planting little seeds of hope. I'm excited to see what God's showing us and know it'll be perfect in His time.
