Sometime soon I will figure out how to post pictures here and find our digital camera in the area in our house known as "dad's desk." I will brave it soon, I promise.

Yesterday evening I spent time sorting through school supplies with another lady from church for the Mission Trip to Ironton that our church is taking in 2 weeks. That particular area of Ohio is pretty economically depressed and we are collecting supplies to fill backpacks for the kids in the area. It's amazing to me that God always seems to work it out. He puts on one person's heart to bring crayons and another scissors. There is nothing more miraculous than having a project from God come together because of His leading the people in His kingdom.

Later in the evening, when she should have been asleep, I chatted with Hope in Florida. She told me all about their trip to Silver Springs, the glass bottom boat she rode in, the bell on the boat that she rang and that she ate and ate and ate. She informed me about riding the big ride high in the air with Grandpa, Ethan and Maddy. She told me that Aunt Sarah rode with Grandma because Grandma was scared of heights. She also said that she rode the bear on the merry go round and waved to Grandma every time she went by her. She forgets nothing and fascinates in everything. What a gift I have been given. God is SO GREAT!
