Six Word Saturday

Here's how it works: describe your life -or something- in six words. Explain or don't, either way, have fun! Visit Cate at Show My Face to read all about it and get started! :)

Waiting to see the little creatures!

Now I lay me down to sleep...

Today, I had a little breakdown with God. Listening to K-Love on the way home, I began worshiping and praying. When was the last time you prayed like a child? By that I mean... literally kneeling and praying innocently for everyone else but yourself? I couldn't tell you the last time I prayed like that. Lately, I've been feeling a tad guilty about my prayer requests that I make known to God. I believe He knows our hearts, so we might as well ask, right?

My breakdown was about my prayers. The things I ask for, but never getting anywhere. God's probably telling me to wait and be patient, but I'm not listening like normal. My breakdown was about the life I lead - and am I really being Christ-like? I think I'm a faithful servant. I hope I am. Am I good steward? Most certainly not. I wish I could give people even HALF the grace that Christ gives us. Of course I sin, and I ask forgiveness. Being the human I am, I always take it back. I give Christ my life, everything... and always take it back.

I sat in my driveway, crying, pouring my heart out to Him, apologizing for the things I do and the things I don't, but should. Trying not to make deals with Him, because that's not how He works.

Maybe tonight, I'll try praying like a child. Tomorrow, I want my faith to be like that of a child. I want to be on fire for my relationship with God, making a difference in His kingdom.

Wedding today; Hope I don't cry!

I'm a sucker for weddings. Over the summer I went to the wedding of my roommate's niece.. I know the family and our Pastor was officiating... I cried and announced that he was NOT doing my wedding when the day comes. :) Last weekend I went to the wedding of my dear friend, AnneMarie. You guessed it... cried. Only 3.. or 6 times. Have a great weekend everyone!!

I did NOT enjoy having a four day work week last week. I NEVER miss work when I'm not there.

I did NOT attend a Matthew West concert for K-Love and I did NOT enjoy it one bit!! I also did NOT cry two...or three... or four times... Sshhh. :)

Oh - and since baseball season is getting closer to being over... I did NOT thoroughly enjoy that the Yankees lost tonight... ABY!!! :)

Last week I said that I had NO ideas for my birthday... well, I have one fabulous friend who did NOT come up with an excellent idea!!! I am NOT excited at all!

Well, I am spending today NOT working... Thank you, Columbus!

I did NOT miss my kids on Thursday. CJ had to call me while they were all there and put me on speaker phone. I heard them all say, "Hi Miss Leslie!" So cute!

I did NOT spend any time driving, and I did NOT get to visit wonderful friends along the way. I also did NOT get to witness the most beautiful wedding I have ever seen... I won't admit that I did NOT cry 20 times during the wedding AND the reception. I would NEVER imagine me to be a crier!! :)

I did NOT play the good sister and take my brother to check out his first tattoo. :) He did all the checking and talking, I was just there for moral support. I have NOT ever thought about getting one... but I'm a wimp!!!

I have also NOT been thinking about what to do for my birthday. In one month I will NOT be hanging on to my twenties by a thread! I know what me and the roommate are doing, but how to celebrate with everyone else? Hmmm....

Oh... and I also did NOT fall down concrete steps at my parents house. I was NOT amused to say the least!

What have you NOT done this week?

This has not been my week!!!

Tuesday got a ticket... supposedly I did not stop at that stop sign (insert eye roll here). One of my church kids was diagnosed with H1N1; so now have to call all the families of kids that were in church on Thursday. Last night my tire was sounding funny, like it was flat... pull over - oh, there's a nail in it. Going to get that fixed today. I'm sure it could be worse, but when it rains it pours!
