We are a family...like a giant tree


I took Ellie and Brent to see Hairspray yesterday with some friends. Brent was gracious and sat through the "chick flick" but I'm sure he secretly enjoyed it. It was a cute movie and very redeeming. I had never seen it before and highly recommend it to anyone - and I don't even like musicals!!

Also, figured out that a new tire costs more than I make in a week - but someone at church handed me an envelope with money for a "new shoe for my car" it was very sweet, very welcome and made me cry. The note said "u r family" and it reminded me of another musical Dreamgirls, where they sing this amazing song about being a family, like a giant tree, stretching up to the sky...I loved that analogy and I love that the sermon yesterday was about the church being family. It was just further confirmation that SFC is doing great things for the Kingdom and I get to be there!

That is wonderful! Stories like that make me think that maybe it is good to be part of this community...sometimes the frustration takes over, but this renews my mojo for community! Thanks for sharing!


About Me

I work at a Christian School district only 4 miles from my home. The people there are full of grace and love and I am glad to be a part of this ministry. I have a neice and nephew whom I love dearly. They are 12 and almost 15 respectively. I have two amazing sisters and two amazing brothers-in-law. Of course, I would not be here if it were not for my mother agreeing to marry my dad. Good going mom! My parents are my life and I would literally be NOTHING without their unconditional love, support and care. You rock mom and dad. Then there's Will & Lora...their giggles are like sunshine and their parents crack me up too.
