Aha Moments

-The feeling of getting my Christmas shopping done start to finish in six hours.

-Seeing two high school teen boys holding signs outside of the major shopping center saying "Free Hugs". I actually got a free hug and it made me smile. I am sure those two boys made a lot of people smile, what a random act of kindness.

-Sitting in church and watching a thirteen or fourteen year old boy lean over and kiss his mom on the shoulder. Made me wish that I had experiences like that as a kid.

-Driving 20 minutes home from church with the cell phone off and the car stereo off. Just reflecting in the silence.

-That affirmation you receive when someone tells you "We appreciate what you do".

-Understanding that two hours of my time meant the world to my mom.

-Knowing that no matter how crazy life is, it's going to be okay.

A really good weekend in a nutshell.

but things always work out.

amen for a faithful God.
