Joyful Joyful

Yes, I probably should be in bed now, as the clock bears down on 1AM. Oh dear.

But – just wanted to briefly dash down a few thoughts before my body shuts down and I fall asleep on this most comfortable bed here at home…

I really have been wanting to write more these past few weeks as I’ve been home – but I’ve been far too busy enjoying being with the fam…so no regrets! And today was as sweet as ever…from going to church and loving being with everyone again as we worshiped our God together! (And got to sing some of my fav songs…And Can It Be, Jude 24/25!!) Came home and dad made some delicious hash from the leftovers from last night’s roast beef dinner…once that was done and me and Mom and Maryanne and Laura had done our Sweetbay run(needed to get ingredients for sauce for tomorrow night’s lasagna!!), we decided it was too nice a day to stay indoors…so me and Maryanne and Laura walked down to the park and got some awesome basketball/football in! It’d been *far* too long since I’ve played with them…and oh so much awesomeness. Following that, came home and we all had Jack Bauer time(*almost* all the way through Season 8! Agent Renee Walker just died in one of today’s episodes…one of the most tragic episodes in all of 24, I think…) then went off to church for end-of-year praise and prayer time! There weren’t many of us there, but there didn’t need to be. We had the sweetest and most lovely time of singing praises to our King and praying deeply and fervently to our Father. I can’t really describe it any further other than I wish you could have been there if you were not…oh how much our God blesses us, giving us such times as these!!

And no, the night was not over yet. We all came home(picked up some delish Pizza Hut on the way! SO GOOD) and watched another episode of 24 before watching the Redskins/Cowboys game…winner-take-all, loser-go-home! And in fine fashion, the Redskins won, 28-18, to take the NFC East crown and a spot in the playoffs! Hail to the Redskins!! And better than all of that…was being with Mom and Dad and Maryanne and Laura and just soaking in the love of my Lord and my God…

And as my grammar continues to deteriorate, it is time for bed, my friends!!

I love you all.

Peace.
