I Am Still Counting!


I had to put up a picture of my red neck garage door opener. Our spring broke so it is very heavy to push up. We are leaving our cars outside most of the time, but with all the snow and the possible blizzard (that seems to have past us up) we sometimes park them inside. When I want to get out I lift it up slowly and put things underneath it to rest. Because we have a bike rack on top of our SUV I have to add this blue container on top of the ladder. The neighbors must love it!!
I was Re-counting last night and since there were a couple of more children given to families we may be around 16 on the list!! Hard not to be excited!

I just finished reading a book a friend gave us, What is the What. I liked this quote from Mother Theresa,
"Lord Jesus, make us realize
that it is only by frequent deaths of ourselves
and our self-centered desires
that we can come to live more fully;
for it is only by dying iwth you
that we can rise with you."

I'm trying not to laugh at your garage door right now... funny! We got enough snow last night to cancel all the area schools today... so it must have hit us instead.
