O.k. here's my quote for today. It's taken from the book Jonah and the Worm.
Little Worm, remember, I live in the heavens too. I will take care of Early Bird. I will keep you in the right way. If you are willing to do My will, you will find me willing to be your shield.

Well, I'm tired and it's late, but If I'm going to keep up with this blog, I have to get into the habit of posting.
Today, we had a excellent meeting. Then we went out to eat. It's quite interesting, you can go out to eat witha bunch of people. End up sitting with just your sisters and still have a great time talking. Not exactly the fellowship I was thinking of doing while eating but it's just as much fun. I thank God daily for my sisters. I don't know what I would do without them. They are my bestest friends and I love and appreciate them greatly.
Then we went shopping at a new accesory store. I bought a necklace, it's really pretty.
Then we came home and I took off for pit rehearsal. I'm playing in my first pit orchestra. I don't know why it's taken this long, but I am finally in a pit. It's a local high school and they are doing Annie Get Your Gun. Rehearsal went much better than it has been. It's been interesting cause I'm really cautious. I don't want to make a big mistake and be super embarassed. I've decided that I do know what I'm doing and to just keep plugging along and I'll be fine. It seemed to work pretty well. I'm be playing along and doing well until I check the conductor to see if I'm with him, and then I get messed up, I forget to count. Oh, that's one of my major problems, musicwise, I never counted when I was younger. I found some way to get around it. So, now, I really HAVE TO count. So, I'm trying to get into the habit now, and learning it the hard way. Did you know you can play a whole song with counting once. It's possible, I've done it, it's not a good habit to have. I don't suggest it to anyone, it makes life difficult down the road.
Hey!!! I just found the color font button. Cool!!! I might use this more often. I wonder which ones are easy to read.......
Well, it's getting late, and when I get tired, I ramble, so I'd better go before I start rambling and making no sense whatsoever.
Night!!

A Child of the King
I recently came across this vision.
One day I was crying out to God and telling Him, “I don’t have a good testimony, I’ve grown up in the church and … you know I’ve grown up around the things of the Lord. I don’t have a great testimony like some of these people have.” And God answered my prayer and He said, “Let Me tell you what has actually happened in your life.” Immediately I saw myself as a small child and I was dressed in rags. I was a slave amongst hundreds of millions of people. There were chains about our ankles and we were slowly walking on our way to death. We were so sad, so oppressed, and so lifeless. As we were stumbling along on our way to certain death, we passed by this beautiful palace. The doors swung open and this beautiful King came through the midst of the crowd. He came right up to me, he pointed at me and He said, “You! I choose you. I want to be your Father; would you like to be My child? I want to adopt you, and take you into My kingdom and raise you as My child. Do you want that?” I instantly replied, “Yes!” Immediately I was taken into the courts of the Lord. I was rushed off by these maids. These maids took me, they scrubbed me down, they groomed me, and they dressed me in the most beautiful robes. When they stood me before the King, I will never forget what happened next. The King got down on His knee, He looked me right in the eye and said, “You have to get one thing straight. From this day forward I am your Father and you are My child. You are never, ever to think or act or behave or dress like a slave again. You are royalty.” Something inside of me happened and I knew who I was! I knew it would so desperately break His heart for me to act like a slave when He was my Father who loved me and wanted me to be His child. Oftentimes we are in His courts and we still think like slaves.” And that was the end of the vision.
And then this hymn. It was written in 1877 by Harriet E. Buell
My Father is rich in houses and lands,
He holdeth the wealth of the world in His hands!
Of rubies and diamonds, of silver and gold,
His coffers are full, He has riches untold.
I'm a child of the King,
A child of the King:
With Jesus my Savior,
I'm a child of the King.
My Father's own Son, the Savior of men,
Once wandered on earth as the poorest of them:
But now He is pleading our pardon on high.
That we may be His, when He comes by and by.
I once was an outcast, stranger on earth,
A sinner by choice, an alien by birth.
But I've been adopted, my name's written down,
An heir to a mansion, a robe and a crown.
A tent or a cottage, why should I care?
They're building a palace fore me over there;
Though exiled from home, yet still may I sing;
All glory to God. I'm a child of the King.

Saturday...
Well, it is 12:30 p.m. on Saturday and I am still in bed with my PJ's on. No, I'm not sick or being lazy. I have a bunch of magazine work to do and get out asap so I got up, ate breakfast and now I am hard at work. Just taking a small break while I talk to Sarah:) I'm almost done though, yeah!!! I only have to finish the song and then email a ton of stuff. After that, baby quilt here I come :) Oh, I should probably practice first. *sigh* violin is not as fun as it used to be. Why did I have to change teachers, argg....... O.k. never mind. My life has been kinda difficult lately. I think it gets this way ever spring. Things get busy at work and that makes life stressful, but you really don't need to hear a sob story so. Oh to something else. I am majorly multitasking. I am writing this, working on th magazine, and talking to Sarah and Grandma, oh and looking for music pictures. Hehe. O.k. well, I should get to work. I have lots of stuff to do and school starts back up on Monday.
Bye....
Bye....
Today
Today was pretty normal. I got my eyes checked this morning. I'm going to get contacts. I also had to have my eyes dialated. Yuck! It's not fun. My eyes started hurting in the afternoon. I think they were just tired.
We got some snow today, well kinda, it was more like slush.
After I got home from work I took a long shower/bath, it felt so good. Sometimes I really get tired of my life, so I take a nice bath and read a book and try and forget about it.
Afterwards I worked on the baby's quilt. I haven't quilted in a long time so it is taking me a lot longer than I thought it would. I am finally making progress though....
Now, I should be working on the KIT stuff but I was having computer troubles so I took a break. I have so much work to do, and I keep getting more. AHHHHH!!!!!!!!! One of these days I'm going to crack, I pity the person who is near me when it happens.
I wish I could figure out how to add friends. I gotta add Deb, Sarah, and Laura, and I can't figure out how.....

- I am a daughter of God who is striving to do and be all that God has for me. I'm a pretty normal person, kinda goofy at times, but I can be a dear. If I try :) I always try to be happy and I'm never lazy, I've tried, it doesn't agree with me. Once you meet me you'll never want for entertainment :)
