Stuff

So here I am blogging from church...Right now the H2O band is playing...they are okay. I suppose I am a little spoiled by listening to the best of the best....is that boastful? Oooops...And no I am not just talking about listening to my boyfriend...I am talking about my wonderful bald hubby and how wonderfully talented he is...am I still being boastful? OOOps, it's not about that..it is what we are bringing to the Lord right? Okay and the band is not just good because of Chris...everything is good, the drummer is pretty cute too.
So we went to the Zoo Friday with my class. Right now I have a sub in my room for my classroom aide, this sub is great...really I like her. She is about 80 years old...so here we are at the Zoo with 12 special education students and 4 adults. We were in the Primate area. The mother orangutan was tending to the cleaning needs of her newborn baby BOY. She proceeded to clean the BOY area with her mouth....The kids were asking me what she was doing...I was not sure what to tell them...I actually was at a loss for words...yes me...no words...ahhh...So this wonderful old lady (the aide) says...in a very quiet voice while nugging me "Well it looks like the mother is licking the babies Tallywacker"....I said...in a very loud voice and with lots of laughter..."TALLYWACKER"...ahhhahhahahahah...I laughed so hard, I had tears running down my face...So needless to say... I still find myself laughing to myself...It was just so hilarious...
So Macee and I went garage sallying the other day. It was fun. She is a great shopper. We love garage sales. We found a great pair of spring/summer white keds the perfect size 6 in toddlers to fit the little princess...all for fity..yes fity cents! Yehaw.
I miss my mom today. I miss her everyday. I just want to so much for us to have a wonderful conversation and like catch up on everything. I still dream at night like she is still here with us. It is weird to wake up and realize she is gone. I am so thankful that she visits in my dreams. I love the Lord. I have really enjoyed my time with him. I am gaining a closer relationship. I too am struggling with what is right for our life, what is God calling me to do, beyond what I am doing now. What the heck, how the heck are we going to get the barn to where it could be really used...it would be great if we could get it ready. I really just want people to start having their own too. What do we do next, we have all been asking ourselves. So who has the answer? What do you do if the crew gets too big? We are all growing and stuff and learning to lean on each other. So also we had some new people...not everyone was all like into talking to them etc. It was evident that they are the new people. The purpose of our community was/is to reach out. But we are finding ourselves becoming eclusive, but when you start to really live as a community and take on others needs as your own it is hard not to become exclusive...ahhh, so anyhow...better go and find my hubby and Macee.
