Days to be spent by the fire

Mabel and I went to visit the Arlington Stringer clan on Saturday. I'm holding Sarah above, and Mabel is holding Rachel. We spent the day snuggling the little ones. We played living room baseball and had a dance party with Camron as well. Have I mentioned that I love being an aunt??


This is pretty much what it looks like outside here. Classes were cancelled today. The forecast has said snow several times, but Mother Nature has just been teasing me as the forecast always changes right before the snow shower. I did see flurries yesterday. But mostly, it's icy outside (there are icicles hanging from my car, pretty exciting), and there is usually some sort of wintry participation stinging your face when you're outdoors.

I've been back in Waco since last Saturday. I'm so excited about my classes, and I realized how much I missed the amazing group of Christian friends I have here. They are amazing. God is working in my heart in incredible ways... showing me that He wants to change me and make me more like Him. I'm letting go.

This semester's theme song:

May the words of my mouth
And the meditations of my heart
Be pleasing to You
Pleasing to You
May the words of my mouth
And the meditations of my heart
Be pleasing to You, my God

You're my Rock and my Redeemer
You're the reason that I sing
I desire to be a blessing in Your eyes

Every hour and every moment
Lord, I want to be Your servant
I desire to be a blessing in Your eyes

May the words of my mouth
And the meditations of my heart
Be pleasing to You
Pleasing to You
May the words of my mouth
And the meditations of my heart
Be pleasing to You, my God

"May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer."~Psalm 19:14
