Sweetness 5

My mama is just about the sweetest thing ever.
This morning she just let me lay in her bed and go on and on about everything
that has taken place over the past few days. We got to talk about graduation, friends
guys and Africa. She was SUCH a good listener and just what I needed.

And JOY is written all over her today. She helped me unload everything in my old room
and helped me unpack all my nick-knacks. She was SO patient as she put away 13 bikinis &
about a million summer dresses all while I sat and wrote emails. What a sweet blessing she was to me. And she did this all because she wanted this next week to be about Africa, no messy room, no distractions. Just peace.

And then ms. sweetness prayed for the days to come. As I told her my biggest fears about Africa she just sat and lifted her hands to her Jesus and talked with Him. She poured blessing onto me and encouraged me with her prayers. What an awesome mama I have

I'm basically in love with her!

stand where you are


I loved this blessed day! It has been so so very good.
Starting somewhere around 12:00 am as I prayed and sand and was blessed over by the neatest people. I was told by a wonderful lady (whom I never met) that I was a prayer warrior, that I need to continue to strive and dig into my prayers and to wait on Him. Such awesome words from someone that knows nothing about me. I needed to hear these words and was beyond blessed by them!
After an awesome time of worship I went with some lovely people to the world renowned In'nOut (classy I know!) Then after little sleep and a short time in a soft bed I went to meet one of the coolest craziest guys at the airport (confession: I secretly adore the LAX airport, seriously I do.) Got to have another lovely meal with him and some old friends... food of choice? In'nOut of course!
Then off to the best class in the world! Jesus Life and Ministry... how amazing that I get to sit and hear about my sweet Messiah and the awesome incredible work He did on this earth. I leave the class blessed every time!
Ok but todays class was hilarious !!! One of my classmates got a brand-new puggle puppy. These dogs are the cutest thing I have ever seen in my life! And it was in my class today. One of the funniest things I have ever seen is a class of seniors bursting with laughter because our professor has no idea we stunk in a puppy! I was cracking up!
After that lovely class I went on an adventure for chacha-boo (my car) and realized that she was parked across campus... Have no idea why I parked her so far away but I did. And it turned out to be a blessing.

As I was walking to my car I heard bagpipes coming from the parking structure and this awesome guy was playing 'Amazing Grace'. OK so if you want me to cry joys of tears have me listen to Amazing Grace on the bagpipes. I ADORE IT! & hearing it played under a parking structure makes the song sound incredible, it seriously sounded like it was a concert. So very good.

Anyways to sum it up... today was lovely.
Worship. Food. Puppies. Bagpipes. Grace.

completely satisfied!
