Eric's birthday and The Shack

Hello all! Sorry I haven't posted for a couple days. We are without a computer in the Smith home right now. Mine crashed a long time ago and Eric's crashed last week! Fun! However, I think that mine will be back to work, maybe tonight! Yea! Today is Eric's birthday (He's 24) and I just want to let everyone know that I love him so much! He is the bestest husband ever! He is out fishing right now with "the guys". His birthday wish was to take the day off work and go fishing (wait... where do I come into that picture?) hahaha! So I hope he's having a blast out there!

Well I just finished reading the book, The Shack, a couple days ago and I must recomend it to anyone who has not read it. It was awesome! It was so well written and I feel like I fell in love with Jesus all over again! After reading it I have found myself just talking to Jesus throughout my day. Ok, I'll tell a funny story about myself... here goes! So I was in a really big rush the other morning and I was trying to get Abby to eat her breakfast quickly (Just so everyone knows, babies do not know what a time limit or schedule is!) I was trying to pour her orange juice with one hand and well, I dropped the whole carton. Needless to say I had some not so great words scream through my head at that second, but then I stoped and I started talking out-loud to Jesus! I said, "Jesus, I am having a really tough time right now and I'm having a hard time seeing the humor in this moment! Please help me find it so I can laugh!" Then I sort of forced a little laugh to come out and then proceeded with pouring the juice. Although I wasn't rolling on the ground laughing, I did feel a bit better and had a sence of peace come over me. I'm not sure what Abby thought of me though :-)

Anyways, if you are having a rough day or if you are having a fabulous day, let Jesus know how you are doing. (He's always right there with you!) Then go to Costco and buy the book, The Shack and read it!
