Day One

Today was the first day I've seen my Grandma in a week. She looks so different, but it's still her. I don't think I can ever get over the way she looks--or anyone else for that matter--like she's sleeping. My Grandma's skin a bit darker than what I remembered, but I noticed that a bit of that cakey make up is on her hair. It makes me want to take some baby wipes to clean it up. While my Grandma lies there, she's surrounded by a whole bunch of red floras in different shades, her fave. Even her red lipstick is in place the way that she puts it.

The two, tiny boys saw her the first time in about a year; the first thing that Nathaniel said, in hushed voice, was, "Oh! Grama's sleeping." Adam just took a peek with no words or sounds.

Seeing my Grandma today reminds me of my Grandpa and my Lola. I miss them from time to time, but that's normal. Praise God for the comfort that He gives through His Word and through His people.

Break and Brake

Brakes are good, and so are breaks. On Saturday, my auntie decided to make a quick change in plans. The overcast morning made it such an easy decision to change from the beach to Disneyland. It was a full day with two, tiny boys; the smallest didn't even enjoy Astro Blaster, but here are some pictures anyway. You can't really see the boys, but they're there.

Yeah, you saw right. Our cousin, Karina, isn't really playing because she was busy sending a text message.

No Words

What words can I use to describe the start of the summer? None. I cannot explain what my heart feels, how my mind thinks, or what my spirit leads. I am glad that my hope does not come from me, but from my God and His words. Praise the Lord.

Scratch That

You can scratch my plans of taking classes during the Summer because God has other plans. I told several of you, but if you didn't know, Summer session at Cal Poly and Mt. SAC have been scratched!

When I first heard the news from my accounting group member, I was devastated. You read it right, devastated. I was lost for words to express my feelings and thoughts because so much depended on this Summer for the Fall. It did not help me one bit that I struggled through this quarter with managerial accounting, statistics, and economics. I had Plan A, then if that did not work out, then Plan B would begin. So what's a girl to do?

How do I praise God through this situation? How do enjoy Him in this busyness? I thought about my financial situation--loans and such--and realized that God knows what my needs are. God knows how much effort I put into this quarter, and maybe He is giving me rest. God knows--I do not know how He does, He just does. PtL for His omniscience!

There are so many other ways to see God moving in this situation, but that is just a little that I would like to share. So if you want to know more, let's get together after Thursday--my last final at 9:10a. YAY!
