Icicles...YUMMMMMMM?

is for

Ireland

where I will someday go!

Isaiah

where there are so many things that speak to me:
"Even the wilderness and desert will be glad in those days. The wasteland will rejoice and blossom with spring crocuses. Yes, there will be an abundance of flowers and singing and joy...There the Lord will display his glory, the splendor of our God...With this news, strengthen those who have tired hands, and encourage those who have weak knees. Say to those with fearful hearts, “Be strong, and do not fear, for your God is coming ...He is coming to save you.”

Ikea

where I am going in June..YESSSSS!!!!

Icicles

which remind me of my childhood...when we'd break them off and carry them around like mammoth, trophy popsicles!!

Hope...

is for

Hope

which I cling to that God will one day give us the desires of our hearts

Hedgehog

Which I had at one point in my life. His name was Pumbaa, I loved him, he loved me,

we were allergic to each other! The rest is history!!

Hook

one of the coolest movies of all time!

Hands

my grandma's hands once were strong, but now are frail

They once raised a boy who became a man who became the greatest dad ever.

Her hands would lift me up into her arms as we rocked together in her chair and

she would sing, "Toora Loora"

as I would hold her hands and trace the wrinkles and lines in her beautiful, worn hands.

Her hands spoke of a lifetime of stories, some hard, some wonderful. Her hands were that of a mother who loved her children. I want my hands to tell a story of the life that I've lived.

I want my hands to look like hers.

Garage Sales...YESSS!!!!

is for

Giraffe

my all time favorite animal. They look like I feel sometimes...awkward, out of place, different. I kind of identify with that!

3 random Giraffe facts:

-like fingerprints, each giraffe's coat is completely unique

-the giraffe has a relative, the okapi, which is a very solitary animal, once thought a mythical creature because of the rare & very few sightings.

-the first thing a baby giraffe does when it is born is drop 6 or more feet to the ground.

Grow

which I want to do.

In character, attitude, response, lifestyle, & example.

I want to be one who finds the lesson in every situation, tosses out the garbage and is like,

"Wow, I'm so glad I went through that, because now I can change _____about myself"

Gustav Klimt
the artist of my favorite painting

"First Kiss"

Guitar
this is the one I got for Christmas from Mark; it sounds like butter! I love it! Maybe its all psychological, by I promise that when you have a better instrument, you write better songs!!
