Do you make vacation Bible school part of your summer? If so, I blogged about what the VBS servant's crown might look like in heaven. Read my theory at:

Christian Women Take Root and Write's Open House is now Monday, July 14. Noelle has worked so hard I don't even have words to describe it. The site has everything a woman could possibly need for information, encouragement and spiritual refreshment. Please mark it on your calendar. Better yet, I strongly encourage you to sign up for the Feedburner subscription service. It will go straight to your inbox, and then you can click on the actual site to keep up to date.
I am a news junkie and I am sad to think of election coverage without Tim Russert. I admit, I scrubbed my palms together in glee when I heard this: I live in one of the top 5 counties in the nation that could decide the election. Whoo hoo.
This week I helped out our children's pastor by lead teaching today. For being techo-clueless, it went well, but I treated myself to an iced mocha latte and Anita Renfroe's MomSense dvd for fun. Have you seen this one? My husband and son were laughing as much as I was.
We are at different places with our grieving over Cocoa. My son is doing better than I thought but admitted he'd like another dog sooner rather than later. My husband quickly turned to anger until I explained friends who admitted the exact thing happened to their dogs/puppies/cats after their neutering recovery. With that sad stat, he seems better. Now it's me. I think now that my busy week settled down, the reality hit. I am not one you would designate as a mushy-affectionate-ga ga person for anything on the outside. Yet Cocoa literally captured my heart in a short order of time. For never leaving kennel circumstances he was on a harness and lead for walks with no problems, housebroken, mastered stairs, affectionate, playful and yet a homebody just like us, hanging out. I struggle with anger but I understand deep down this is not a blame game. This afternoon I did take hours researching dogs. There are fairly local options. If you read this and feel led to pray, I'd appreciate it.
In closing....July 14 isn't just the Take Root Open House, it's also the season premiere of TNT's The Closer. I am hooked on this show. I am so sad about this show that when I visited the police last week to talk about stolen property, I felt like I knew as much as the officer because of my vast TV time with Kyra Sedgewick and gang on this fantastic ensemble show. I'm sure he turned back to his office with a smirk, I was almost to the point of ending it with a southern drawl "Thank Yuuu, thank you so much!" just as Brenda would on the show. Sigh...I love amazing writing and this show is top notch. It is a cable show dealing with law situations, so I have caught a profanity or two, just so you know.
Thanks for stopping by!
