Phoebe...

...Is spending a couple of days with me. I am enjoying her immensely! As you know, she has very curly hair, so I decided to straighten it for her. It came out looking pretty nice. Don't worry-the curls will be back as soon as she washes it. =)

I read Psalm 8 this morning...I was so blessed. Read it!

Life is short...

One year ago today, we received a phone call. It was one of the worst days in my life. My 46 year old aunt unexpectedly passed away from a heart attack in the middle of the night. Our lives have been changed forever. A week later I moved in with my cousin to stay with her. 
On days like these, I am reminded once again that life is so short. We never know which day could be our last.  So, I would like to say... live well, laugh often and love. Make sure that you don't have any strained relationships, especially with your family members.  Most importantly, make sure that you are ready to meet the Lord.   


On a brighter note...we had a blast last night. We went to a park for a picnic and then to the pier in St. Joseph and watched a fireworks with some friends.  Pics are coming later! =)
