Advice from Professor Higgins

(read with all of Henry Higgins' (My Fair Lady) condescension)

"Marry some sentimental hog with lots of money and a thick pair of lips to kiss you with and a thick pair of boots to kick you with! If you can't appreciate what you've got, you'd better get what you can appreciate."

Need a good laugh?

Nicholas said even the daddy was funny. You have to watch the whole thing!

Thank You, God!

Today I just wanted to say thanks to God. Over the past few days I have been realizing how truly blessed I am. God has brought me through many different things, and right now, I have a great life! God has given me a wonderful husband (whom I am missing dearly right now - he's at a retreat), three great kids (they listen and are kind and loving for the most part), a house to live in, a minivan (something we prayed for for a long time), an awesome church & extended family there, friends who are around in the good and bad times ... God has blessed me with an overabundance of good things!
This morning I read this verse ~
Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him. (James 1:12)
I know I'm not done yet, or anything, but it seems like God has given me a wonderfully full life.
So I wanted to say "Thank You". :)
