Here's my vent:

I'm tired.

Okay everyone.. Our internet is down right now so I am at the library. Just wanted to make a quick note that I'm still alive, and there's a rant coming. Amy said it might be good for me to vent in writing. You know just to get it out.. So I'm due for a good rant in the next post. Just fair warning.

Hopefully we'll get the internet fixed tonight.

I know it's been a while. I have one more final today and then I'll get back on track.. Well sort of. Not that I ever was really on track. But hey.

I forgot my dad's birthday yesterday. Well, not really forgot it. I thought it was on the nineteenth, not the ninth. He didn't believe me, but he forgave me. I'll see him next week and make it up to him then. Not sure how. Any suggestions??

Very very very bad evening.

Guys pray for me that I'll learn to tame my tongue.

My son is perfect...

I'm supposed to be finishing up a bible study on Isaiah 1-6 tonight. I read it, but I'm not ready to respond to it yet. I don't know how. I'm going to have to think about it a little longer.

But I keep getting sidetracted thinking about Elijah. I'm in the extra bedroom trying to do my bible study when and suddenly I'm distracted by the fact that just a few short hours ago we were wrestling on the bed in here, and on the floor by the kitchen. We were playing peekaboo, and I was hearing his gleeful laughter. And I'm so tempted to go drag him out of bed so we can play some more tonight. (but I won't. I'm not that crazy.) But I can't help but think how wonderful he is. (and when I say wonderful, I mean full of wander).

Oh sure, I'll admit he's developing an attitude. He's learning how to voice his opinion when he wants something. And there is just no messing with the kid when he's tired. But how blessed I am to see that smile as much as I do. I want to be more like Jesus today, so that I can be a great mommy for that kid upstairs.

Thank you God for family. Please protect them.
