World in His Hands

So many days I wake up and feel like I have no control over my circumstances even though that is just silly and I should never think that. I have so much and so little going on right now at the same time. Trying to keep everyone happy, I have remained as neutral as possible by just keeping still and working on my listening skills. My Nana sent me an email this morning that was so perfect that it made me smile. I'm no longer amazed at God's ways of reaching me. It was about a trip to the beach reminding a woman how big God is and how the control is in his hands. It was just what I needed to get my day started. This weekend seemed very long to me. Most of the time I blink and it's over, but not this one. I did spend some time with Jay this weekend, as I do most weekends. That was rewarding as always. He levels me out in a weird unexplainable way that I am still trying to understand. Just being around him makes me feel somehow saner. LOL. Not to mention, Tuckie keeps me laughing. Taylor and I spent some much needed time together Saturday night. She decided that we should go to "I-PoPs" for dinner. It was so cute that I couldn't even say no. So at 7:30pm we had breakfast for dinner. Believe it or not, she ate very well. She is so picky when it comes to her food. I keep telling her she must have taken after Nathan. When he was little he went through phases of food every week. At one time he even claimed not to like macaroni! We had fun drawing pictures with crayons on the kid's menu at the restaurant even after our food came. I worry about how she will take all of this with her parents, but she is so sweet and good natured that she will probably do much better than the rest of us will. Children are so resilient especially when they are young and somewhat oblivious. Sunday was mostly a lazy day. I didn't even get out of bed until almost noon. Jay and I went to Home Depot's to get so stuff for his flower beds and then to Target to get Tuckie food. Other than that my weekend was very uneventful. I know last night Jay and probably most of Memphis was upset about the Universtiy of Memphis' basketball team not getting the number one seed pick. I know very little about basketball so I didn't quite understand the severity of that decision, but I was schooled on how all of that works. It did sound like Memphis got the short hand of the stick. I hope that they come back and whoop them all anyways. This weather is so crazy right now that it makes me want to move to Florida or maybe somewhere in the Keys. Poor Grey can't get out from under this little cold that he has. He has been such a Daddy's baby all weekend. He traveled all the way down to Sugar Creek with his daddy this weekend. He had a lot of fun. Well, this weekend, as I said, was uneventful. Now I'm trying to get my week started off right by just remembering that God has my whole world in his hands. So, until next time everyone have a great day
