It’s Party Day!!

We’ve been kind of low the past few days. Yesterday Jef heard a sermon on the radio. He came home & found it on the internet & we both listened to it. It was based on Jer. 29:11.
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
I hadn’t thought of this before, but the pastor reminded us that verse was written to the Israelites who were stuck in captivity in Babylon. They probably thought God had had enough and was done with them. That’s how we were feeling. Now, we are at least reassured of God’s love & care. We still don’t know what we are supposed to do, though. 🙂

Today is Nicholas’ party. He is turning 3 tomorrow. I can’t believe how fast he’s grown! Nicholas has been looking forward to this party since August! He is having an Elmo & Cookie Monster party. I hope it is lots of fun for him. We will have 27 (27!!!!) people here – 12 of those will be kids! Yikes!
Having Jef home is nice – everything is done for the party! Usually I would be freaking out because there would still be fourteen things to do! All I have to do today is scrub the kitchen floor, run to the store, shower, and make chocolate chip cookies! 🙂 Could’ve made the cookies yesterday, but I wanted them to be warm & fresh.
Ok – off to scrub! Thanks for all the prayers! Please keep praying!
