listening for God echoing through everything, everywhere

  • the life, smile and service of Osman Kamara (i'm hoping he's teaching my mama how to dance to African music)
  • the unadulterated bliss of a cat napping in the sunshine
  • shea's visit.  getting to meet her sweet daughter :)
  • amazing helpers who did a great job decorating at CCC 




  • complimentary coke at "the hangar" (reward for a job well done?!) 
  • caroline's creative care of zoe


  •  me: "i must warn you that i'm in a pretty bad mood."   lauren: "i like it when my friends are in bad moods."  Lauren's encouragement and kindness and willingness to brighten my day turned it all around. 
  • .50 corndog day at sonic!!  and friends to have a parking lot picnic with (hutton and eli were way more thrilled than they appear in this photo)


  • the deal caroline found on a sweater she likes! 
  • sorting through the santa shop goodness

  • KJ's epic christmas cards.  it's become a tradition. 
  • ever helpful reminders

  • seeing the trees in uptown columbus (especially the Teen Advisors, Inc. tree!)
  • free carwash!  grand opening of the wave car wash place on veterans

  • the "i'm going to see a victory" moment before the football game (and how it really had nothing to do with the football game)
  • chicken fingers and fries.  so good. 
  • "count all His gifts, all His gifts, all His gifts - and listen for God echoing through everything, everywhere." - ann voskamp's "Unwrapping the Greatest Gift" Advent book
