Today I am at my sister's. My parents are here too. I got to see my new baby niece. Tonight I got to hold her right before her bedtime and rock her in the rocking chair. While she was about to doze off, I saw a smile that could've stretched from ear to ear. Holding her in my arms I had to wonder ... Would she be in some ways like the aunt she shares a birthday with --- a daydreamer who smiles at pleasant possibilities as she drifts off to sleep? :c)

My nephews and I hung out at the playground some this afternoon. Jacob, 3, saw me holding his mom's cell phone and asked if I also had a phone like hers. I told him I didn't. "Maybe if you to the store and ask if you could please have one, they'll give you one," he replied. :o)

I must go. Tomorrow I get to go to church with my dad and brother-in-law. :o) I look forward to that. BTW, I am thinking to go visit Stonebriar Community Church, Chuck Swindoll's church one of these Sundays. I went once with my mom when she was in town and wanted to hear him, and was so impressed with his humility and transparency as he led the congregation.
