"Sing to the Lord, you saints of His; praise His holy name. For His anger lasts only a moment, but His favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing
comes in the morning." Psalm 30:4-5

I do not know where my mind was when I painted this, but I do remember having fun. Terry was home and he kept spinning around in his chair to watch me. I had on my IPOD and was jamming and painting, oblivious to anything else. This followed a pretty treacherous week of kidney stones and busy schedules... it was time to dance.

In our lives there are always things creeping in to pull us down emotionally. If we didn't have the down days we would never enjoy those up days. God can transform your day in a blink when you least expect it. If you are sitting in the dark right now or you are emotionally drained, stop and focus on Him and the light will begin to come. Praise Him through it all.

Today is one of Stacey's showers. Her best friend is in from California to give it with her other best friend from Dallas. It is at Stacey's house so that is an hour in travel time from here. Natalie, the friend from CA, was Stacey's high school running buddy. They have definitely been through treacherous times together. Natalie will be back when Lauren is born to help Stacey through the first two or three weeks. THAT is a friend. I love Natalie. Natalie has her PHD in some science field, but she decided to follow her dream and she is doing photography full time. She is awesome.

She travels all over the country following her passion. She is the daughter of two ministers....two...so she double carries her Love and Gift from God everywhere she goes. She is a bright light in our lives. Here is a photo she took of Stacey this week... and I am sure there will be more for me to share later.



From bed rest to delivery....we are rejoicing that Stacey is now 35 weeks and Lauren
(aka Tink)
is now over five pounds.

Joy and Abundance,

Laurie

"You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy." Psalm 30 :11
