Could there be a better day??! I think not.
Today is February 22. Birthday of George Washington, Ryott Daniel, Dex Wray Wilde, and Oliver Lightly. How I love all three dear heroes-to-be; how thrilling to have them in my life and watch them grow and be friends with their mums. Certainly they make up for any son God could have given me! More wonderful still, today we have gotten the biggest snowfall of over SIX inches of fluff!!! (Okay actually that still sounds sort of pathetic after my experience with blizzards, but there are Some Things that I will not be sad about!) And it is Friday that I get to be home with Norah, Brett gets both overtime and off early, and life is at our disposal.
Psalms 147:16
He gives snow like wool
Job 37:6
For to the snow he says, ‘Fall on the earth’
Proverbs 31:21
She is not afraid of snow for her household,
for all her household are clothed in scarlet.
(Here is something I started to write Jan 13th)
This bright year, 2013, excites me in my bones. Though I am wont to burst into tears while singing, reading, or driving. God has taught me a new thing: That my desire is right, but the fulfillment may not ever look the way I expect it to. You would think I would know this already; I'm just that resistant to His way and insist on having my own!
“I can do all things, and no purpose of mine can be thwarted” (Job 42:2)

I love that you love the snow so much Reagan. You have a passionate heart, and I'm so glad when you share it. Also, you may resist Him in a moment, but I know that you, as a person, are totally set on doing things His way. :) That is who you really are, truly: a thankful, delighted daughter, who trusts God completely. Someone shared that with me recently and I thought I'd share it with you. You're prone to trust Him. Left on your own, you'll most likely be patient. :) Haha!
Love you, sis.
Thanks for that comment, bro! The last couple phrases sound a little like a fortune cookie though. *wink*
