Thoughts.

Text conversation from Saturday that I loved:
Dad's across the country. I called. He couldn't answer. Hence this exchange of words...
Daddy Ray: "Hey girl. I'm at a hockey game. What are you up to?"
Me: "I'm about to go to a cook out, I was just calling to say hi :)"
Daddy Ray: "Very good. What are you cooking for me?"
The conversation continued a tad bit afterward, but that was all we really needed.

From a Beth Moore video tonight:
"Now that you are not so impressed with yourself, maybe I can use you."
Pens went flying to record this statement before the words had finished leaving her lips.

A scene that appears strange to a boy:
"So was that a I-can-go-and-eat-your-cookie-dough conversation we just had?"
"Oh yeah, for sure. Go get it."
Returning with a roll of sugar cookie dough, three college girls pinch away at the sugary goodness.
Our friend Willie grabs a little and laughs.
"Do boys not do this?" One girl inquires.
"I mean, we eat cookie dough, but not just sitting around like this together."
A fourth girl arrives at the front door with a just-purchased roll of chocolate chip cookie dough and hands it off.
A fifth girl has migrated to the scene; both naturally join in the festivity.
All 5 girls continue to pinch away at the two different kinds of cookie dough.
After some quality time spent doing this, one of the original three begins to depart for the night,"Okay. Well. I'm going to bed."
Willie stops her with a question, "Wait, y'all aren't going to make cookies?"
"No."
"...Y'all never had any intention of ever making any cookies?"
"No."
:) the joys of girl time.

Keeps running through my mind:
"No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him" 1 Corinthians 2:9 ...It is hard to not imagine what you would have that mean for yourself. Where would you have me God?

Highlight of my day:
Receiving an e-mail from an 80+ year old woman with a picture of a mouse saying God is good and that she sees me as one of her blessings. Heart melting.

Gerontology test tomorrow:
Goodnight.
