I've had lots of thoughts and stories running through my head right before I go to bed, and really thought this blog might be a good way to get rid of some of them.
Some highlights of the day:
1. Story time at Burkhardt Library
Crappy library, fun story time. Jason was in his element and I felt like it gave him a little connection back to his circle time at school, which he misses.
2. Getting interviewed by WHIO at the garden with Jenny
I don't care much about the interview itself (I didn't even get to watch it on the news!), but I hope someone saw it and wanted to plant their own. We've gotten a lot of lettuce, spinach, kale, parsley, cilantro, snow peas, carrots, and zuchini so far with tomatoes, corn, peppers, black beans, green beans, cabbage, and peppers to come. Glory to God for all His gracious gifts. We planted the seeds, the Holy Spirit helped them grow; for after all in Him all things live, move and have their being (even veggies!).
3. Evening prayer with Jason participating swimmingly
Jason did a great job of singing and praying tonight--if you can't see the benefit of coming to evening prayer for yourself, you can see it for Jason. He knows all the words, all the prayers, all the songs and, therefore, a lot of scripture (it's scattered throughout). We go not for our own enjoyment, however, but because it is one hour in the middle of the week to remember that the Really Important Things of life are not doing what's convenient, but offering "prayers, petitions, and intercessions on behalf of all--kings and all those in authority..."
AND clean floors, lunch made for Mark and wine at the end of it. Again, Glory be to God for all His gracious gifts.
