The morning service at church was GREAT. It is always an amazing feeling to feel the spirit move throughout the service. After church we went to one of my favorite restaurants and ate with dear friends. Todd received the new City Monopoly game for Christmas and our friends were coming over to play after church today. Everyone was having a fun time and then "it" hit. I'm not sure if I ate something or what was going on but I spent the rest of the afternoon / evening running back and forth to the bathroom. My friend, Tonya, was here and said I was taking her morning sickness from her. :) Todd and Logan decided to go on to church and I stayed home. I really was excited about our service tonight as I knew Bro. Joe was preaching and he always brings forth such an amazing message. Once my house was empty I laid on the couch and continued to make my trips to and from. I didn't eat anything different than 2 others at lunch so... who knows. The evening was not a complete waste as I realized one of my favorite movies was on. "The Sound of Music" always makes me smile. As I sat here tonight watching it I can't help but hum the song "My Favorite Things".
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens
Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens
Brown paper packages tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things
Cream colored ponies and crisp apple streudels
Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles
Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things
Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes
Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes
Silver white winters that melt into springs
These are a few of my favorite things
When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad
As I picked up my laptop and started thinking of what to write about tonight, I decided I would share a few of my favorite things...
Scales that are less each time you weigh :)
Smiles
The feeling of accomplishment after a good work-out
- Hugs
The simpleness of my salvation
The smell of Lolo after his bath
The rain
Friends that really care "true friends"
The Word of God
People that do what they say they will do
Girl Power study
Easter
Family
Watching Logan sleep
and so much more...
Wow, I do feel better after thinking on some of my favorite things -- Now, it's your turn -- what are some of your favorite things?
Until tomorrow...
