about yesterday....

I don't take my post yesterday back because that is how I felt. I was over it!

But with a new day, comes a new attitude.

I had a great day today. We opened our new sanctuary at church, and it was amazing! We are so blessed to get to worship with some amazing people in an amazing space. Can't wait to see what God has in store for World Outreach in 2010, and I'm so excited our family will be a part of it.

After attending service, we taught our 4th-6th graders. The teachers we teach with are such encouragers and such great friends to walk with us. Lori, our leader (who also happens to be my boss at work) was back from her 6 week bike trip to New Zealand. It was great to get to hear her prospective again. Whew, I've missed that!

After church, Nick and I spent some quality time together over lunch and then I did a little retail shopping for Bates (which always makes me feel better!)

This afternoon I had a small group leader meeting at church. It was a great time and I was encouraged by some complete strangers.

And tonight an old friend and her mom stopped by (HI BLOG STALKERS!!) and ewwwwwed and awwwwwed over Bates' pictures and video. It was great to catch up with them and their crazy lives!

All that today to say,
I have a new attitude today.

I would wait a lifetime for my son.
I would wait a million days to hold him for one moment.
I would wait the rest of my life to be with him for just one day.

now, don't get me wrong, I don't want to wait that long, but I would....if I had to....
