Unfortunately, my Uncle Bob has ended up in the hospital after an intestine surgery with septic shock and a couple of heart attacks. He has made a small improvement today, but any prayers you could spare would be greatly appreciated.
I DO NOT want to totally slack on my gratitude list, so here's 30 things I'm thankful for to take care of Tuesday, Wednesday and Mrs. Robertsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10929212527553454506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8600385441070938587.post-4647867277769132922012-07-09T20:56:00.005-05:002012-07-09T20:56:50.358-05:00So...It's been a day. VBS was great this morning! Seeing that many little ones was great!
I'm super tired...so I'm going to keep it short.
Today I am thankful for:
Unconditional love.
Snakeskin sandals.
Doggie kisses.
New classroom decorations.
Saying things out loud that you haven't for a long time.
Facing fears.
Taking care of myself.
Hope.
Prayer.
Serving.

We had an awesome sermon this morning at church. Jason talked a lot about what we were being called to do in our lives, either professionally or otherwise. He also talked a lot about how things have to be in alignment for it to be a true calling. Not only do you have to be called to do it, but your community has to see it as a strength or a calling that's yours and the timing has Mrs. Robertsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10929212527553454506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8600385441070938587.post-2063101382055700522012-07-08T18:55:00.000-05:002012-07-08T18:55:12.401-05:00Saturday's ListI'm a horrible slacker...here's yesterday's list.
I'm thankful for:
A spontaneous husband that took me to the Nelson just to look at the pretty stuff because I wanted to go!
Malli sleeping all night long with no whining...yay!
Being able to workout in my house since it's a million degrees outside.
Air conditioning...we all take it for granted, it's actually amazing and lots of people don't Mrs. Robertsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10929212527553454506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8600385441070938587.post-92209339081982437852012-07-06T10:35:00.003-05:002012-07-06T10:35:46.137-05:00Keep on Keepin' OnSo...my Bible verse today was Joshua 6:2-5. They story of the fall of Jericho...the message, keep on keepin' on...sometimes things don't happen when you think they should, but we have to remember that they happen when they are supposed to, when God wants them to. Patience has never been a virtue that I have been super good at...but I'm trying!
On to my list for the day.

A recap:
April:
Ran the Rock the Parkway Half Marathon with all of my friends from school and actually did rock it! I finished with a time of 2:17. My goal was 2:20, so I stayed under that and was actually able to leave the 2:25 pace group that I Mrs. Robertsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10929212527553454506noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8600385441070938587.post-8766268186989385942012-03-12T13:13:00.006-05:002012-03-12T13:27:38.141-05:00Horrible...So, as we've established before, I'm horrible at staying on top of this thing.
