Bang bang

Here is the after photo. I like the change, but when I was getting it done, I decided I did was not doing it to like it or not like it. I did it because I wanted to make a decision, stick with it, and see it through. I know-- its only hair, but this was a big step for me. So, score one for the 27 year old reformed non decision maker.

Speaking of that, the decision to enter college is weighing heavy on my heart and life. Like I said before, I am positive about going to school, but the where is the question. I literally feel 1,000 pounds as I weigh my options. I am heading out next weekend to look at more schools, so please pray that God clearly directs my path.

Baby Spencers funeral was so very sad. We were handed programs on our way into the service and inside it said “If you live to be 100, I hope I live to be 100 minus 1 day, so I never have to live without you.” It was as gut-wrenching as it sounds. But it was a beauiful service. And there is good news! Paige and Levi are growing so very strong on their own and the doctor's think it will be only about 3 weeks now until they come home. I can't imagine Amanda and Brians relief at having them come home.

Yesterday cousin Kevin Friesen came to town, and he is looking and doing wonderfully! It was great to see the light in his eyes and the passion for his job. We had coffee at Starbucks and usually we talk about life and our mistakes and how we are going to fix them the next time (to prove that we got the lesson instead of just saying we did.) I ask so many questions about Kevin and his life and about his kids because his responses intrigue me. I told mom last night that somehow I just get his words, and that he has done more to pastor/mentor me this year than anyone else has had the chance to. It is truly a blessing the friendship that I have with him. He's not perfect, but that's what makes it so cool. Turns out I am not perfect either. (I know, it was a newsflash for me as well).

Oh, and I want Heather to win Top Model. She is not the prettiest or Miss personality, but I think she has one heck of a story.
