Much Ado About...Something

Hmm...I've been a bit quiet lately. I'm not really sure why. It seems in the past few posts that I've lead this life that has these "events" in it daily or weekly. I guess the fact of the matter is that's just not so. I have been busy, but I guess it just doesn't seem worth blogging about. That is, unless you care to read about how I scheduled our heat pump to be worked on, how I vacuum my house daily, pick up toys....the mundane things, I guess. It's my life though, and I like that I can call it mine.

I had to pick Sage up from school early yesterday. They told me that she has pink eye. Hmmm...I knew that was going around, but they told me it was mostly in the babies. I was aware that she had a cold, and for whatever reason, they always seem to travel to her eyes. Is THAT pink eye? I'm not really sure, but in any case, I picked her up early. She said, "It's my favorite pink!" in her eye. That's how she talks about favorite colors. "Her favorite pink."

Some other cool things for me: Christmas shopping is coming along very nicely already. Santa is going to be veeerrry good to Miss Sage this year, as he should. Also, for the Christmas program at church, Luke wanted me to sing a Mariah Carey Christmas song with the Hands Team (a sign/dance group). They chose Silent Night, and they're signing to it with glow in the dark gloves, which should be really cool. I'm speaking at a leadership meeting on Monday night, which should be interesting, but I think it should go well.

AND one of my most favorite things involves a little explanation. A few weeks ago, Pastor Kent preached on sexual immorality. They had an overwhelming response of couples that were living together, unmarried. They said that they knew they were out of the will of God, but they just didn't have the means to get married. SO what OUR church is doing is hosting a mass wedding for FREE. Kent said that it's going to be NICE too: food, music, decorations, the works...all on us. I got a phone call yesterday, and they want ME to sing in the wedding! I thought that was so cool because weeks ago, WHILE Kent was saying that we were going to do this, I thought, "Ooh I wonder if they'd ask me to sing." I think that was the Lord!

Jonathon and I sang "The Prayer" by Celine Dion back in August, but due to these circumstances, they wanted something not "so traditional." I get what they're saying, so a friend suggested, "God Bless the Broken Road." I'm not a HUGE fan of that song, but I think it's perfect for the situation, and Jonathon liked the idea. Sooo, that's about it, I guess. Christmas, practices, cleaning, shopping, and singing.
