Promise

Psalm 121

A song of ascents.

1 I lift up my eyes to the hills—
where does my help come from?

picture-121

2 My help comes from the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.

3 He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;

picture-15

4 indeed, he who watches over Israel
will neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The LORD watches over you—
the LORD is your shade at your right hand;

picture-23

6 the sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon by night.

7 The LORD will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;

picture-14

8 the LORD will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.

Peace.

Maybe tomorrow I’ll sing….

Maybe….

Or maybe I’ll just buy myself a canary.

Peace.

The Remains….

I’m still in a fog from my Sunday nap, then trip to Target - BTW, I don’t recommend doing that on the last shopping day before school starts……..

I really have nothing profound to say. Turning 40 didn’t miraculously make me wise and full of profundity….more like tired and full of……cake.

Thank you so much to all of you who expressed such kind words and sentiments to me over the past few days. It’s been humbling and uplifting. You have no idea how you have carried me.

C3 this morning was packed and there was such good energy - I’m so grateful to all of you who made the backpack giveaways possible. The smiles of little children are so worth any sacrifice……
I helped one little cutie-pie pick out a backpack…..I said “You look like a ‘pink girl’ to me!”…and she was - takes one to know one, I guess.

This week will be full of all kind of scheduling adjustments as all of my kids have different drop-off and pick-up times…..there’s a full two hours between the first and last!!!

I guess I’ll be dockin’ a lot of time in the Bledsoe “bus” listening to classics like “Different Strokes” and “Reba”.

I’m just so weary now, so I think I’ll try to turn in early.

I hope all of you have peace and joy this week….

Like Chicken Soup…

…for the middle-aged soul!

Thank you all!

Peace.
