i love....

....that isaiah's new favorite band is U2. yes, he asks for them by name.
....that alaythia loves isaiah so much and copies everything he does. the most recent thing is playing the air drums in the car when a new song comes on. watching them both do it is priceless.
....that we know for sure that we'll be studying at southern and we'll be living in kentucky. (that just happened yesterday).
...space bags. yes, i've cleaned out the 15 boxes of isaiah's clothes and fit what's left into 3 large space bags. sucking the air out and watching them shrink makes me giddy. i want to put my life in space bags!!
....coffee and diet coke. they're not the best for me, but they keep a mama going. can i get an 'amen!'?
....that a friend gets some relief from a 'fight' that she's been fighting for a very long time. and i love that she had justice...finally.
....that matt has infused our family with music. so much so that the other night as matt was playing the piano and isaiah was playing his djembe, isaiah busted out with his very own worship song. 'you are my Lord and i trust you. you are the messiah and i trust you.' as i stared at him and matt played the piano to the tune he was singing, we both cried.
