Nothing

Just wanted to let you all know (all 5 of you that read this:) that NOTHING has happened since I posted last.  Oh, wait, one thing has happened... I keep walking to my mailbox and seeing NOTHING.  So, that's the latest.  Sorry, no fun pictures to represent the NOTHINGNESS.  :)


On the bright side, I did get to spend Saturday with my sis and her fam, so that was of course fabulous.  And, we have family coming to town this week and next, so that is something to look forward to....  

Of course God is still teaching me... this week He lead me to the book of Numbers (who knew you could learn something from NUMBERS???).  The Israelites are still grumbling (sounds familiar), and God finally says, "How long will these people refuse to believe me?"  Yep.  He's talking to me, too.  So, just like the Israelites refused to believe that the Promise Land was "just around the corner" and PERFECT for them, I am also having a hard time believing that this SUPER-LONG wait is exactly perfect for us and our sweet little guy and his family.  So, thank you, Numbers--the book of the Bible that I have never really noticed until now (sorry to say).  

Hope this week brings a super-fun walk to the mailbox.... believe me, you'll know if it does!
