Good Things Out There

This is an incredible story about God relentlessly seeking His children. Check out the conversion story of the author of "Basic Instinct" (thanks for the link, Mike).

Y'all, this is the most precious idea for birthdays!! The chair backs AND pillowcases -- how simple and how special!

You know by now that my deer-hunter-in-shining-camo has a blog that tends to get just a teency bit political (ahem). And, of course, he had some political observations about this brief story, but you MUST hear the story. Another amazing story of someone doing what they could quietly and without notice...

Found ANOTHER awesome site for crafts and organization.

Showed this video in church today. It had a point, too -- but it's just funny no matter what:

Thanks for the birthday ideas - Aidan's 5th is coming up. I loved the video this morning too, but thought that Ameriquest should have bought advertising space since their logo was up for so long.

Great links, loved the video on Troy's site, made me cry. Little precious Irena is an inspiration.

I kept laughing and laughing at the video this morning. Way past the time when it was appropriate to stop laughing!

Love the birthday ideas. When our girls were small we all had "birthday flags" tha we displayed inside. They were made out of felt (bad idea) and were each different (good idea). The years were signified by gluing buttons on them. Of course mine and Vann's looked the most decorated.

Another thing we did was to get a white sheet that we used as a tablecloth for each girl's birthday party. The kiddos at the party were given paint pens (supervised of course) and then sign their names. That's still precious to us.
