little girls with pigtails.

Love songs keep coming out of me & I don't know where from.

I really have not gotten the hang of my nikon. I've become aware of the fact that I can still take better pictures with my four megapixille point&shoot.







That is my (new) ukulele. Nat & I made a wonderful barter and now it is mine. I am very happy with it. I love insturments. I am thinking about getting a djembe (um...for Christmas :)
Somehow Bethany & Joe have become the best c.d. makers I know of.

The Ascent was this weekend & it was amazing!! I LOVE hour long rides in a full fifteen-passenger van! I came back having this immense peace and fullness. I felt like it was a time to just sit before the Lord and enjoy Him. He enjoys it.
There was one moment during one of the two-hour Brandon Willet worship sessions when I saw this little five-year-old-looking girl with brown pig-tails and a tiny little back pack. She was waving a little silver banner around and she reminded me of me & who I want to be. I want to trust like a child. I want to know my Father. Anyways, enjoying the fluttering of her beautiful little banner she ran in one big circle around the entire room with a huge grin on her face. It was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen in my life.
I want to be like that. honest before him. not being ditracted. worshiping him WHOLEHEARTEDLY. ah!

I have a hope and a future. WAHOO!!!
:)

& I will leave you with this...

"lights that flicker, like the hope in the hearts of the bitter
you and I both know that it's only a wisper
but it gives me chills like a scream in the night
or your cheap bought thrills that creep in and squeeze your will tight.
I think we both know the way it goes
I think we've both seen the way that it goes
when you let it."

I have been listening to Jon Foreman for the past three hours. mmm.
