Happy Things...

Tyler Florence's pulled pork sandwich recipe minus the mustard sauce, a.k.a. dinner tonight (I used normal bottled BBQ sauce). I am vaguely considering sneaking back into the sorority house for a midnight snack of...a pulled pork sandwich.

The babe is starting to sign a teensy bit more. In addition to "milk," which has been her all-purpose sign for many moons, she now also does "nap" and her own version of "all done," which involves her throwing her cup off of her high chair and putting her left hand over the left side of her face. Then today, I caught her looking at a picture of a dog in a book and doing the sign for "dog"!!! It was so exciting.


I'm singing again! It's been a looooong time and it took a fair amount of courage to go through with the audition, but I MADE IT and I'm totally stoked to be singing for none other than Craig Jessop (formerly of the MoTab) in the new American Festival Chorus! The choir is huge and sounds great already, and Jessop is honestly a genius. More on that later!

More than anything, the big happy thing is that life is good. God is good. I don't wax religious too often on here, but if there's one thing I know, it's just that -- that He knows us and loves us. Honestly.

You have such a beautiful life, and I never tire of hearing all about it.

I can't tell you how amazed/jealous I am that you're singing again. I've really let it go, I need a kick in the butt. Any suggestions?

Congratulations! There's nothing like being in a choir with an amazing director - some of the best moments of my life!

Your words brought a tear to my eye. Life is good, God is good. Thanks for the wonderful reminder!
