The Amazing

I was at my sister's house this weekend, I played cars with my nephew, and ran around a mall. All in all it was a good weekend, thanks to a cool boss who gave me those days in a row. Sure last week started out badly, but this week it will go better, not much can darken my mood, although I am running on what feels like little sleep (I actually got quite a bit,) and just drove for the last 3 hours, ohh the joys. Then off to work my 9.5 hour shift at MckyD's, no stopping at home, no getting a hour nap.

Well it's okay, I will survive, and so will my crew, they have seen me through worse.

But what are the three things that have made my weekend?
One: Spending time with my sister, something that doesn't happen as much as I would like. She is one of those people that seems to know me without trying, even if we haven't been close are whole lives.
Two: My nephew Dominic, the coolest 2.5 year old I have met yet. Though he is in his terrible twos, he still is adorable, and lovable. He played cars with me, let me hold Kitty and Teddy, and played UNO with me. He rocks, especially since he will fight about who loves who. "I love you," "no I love you." and so on.
And of course Three: I felt my unborn, un-named, nephew kick, or really my sister thinks it his elbow or hand. It was soo cool, because when she was pregnant with Dominic he wouldn't kick. What makes this even cooler for me; Beth said he usually stops moving when someone besides her and Jon feel for him, but he sure moved for me. Yay!

When these things happen I cannot not believe that God is there watching everything, and orchestrating it all. So we have some bad days, think of all the small things God does. When a little flutter tells you there is a baby. When a family member calls even when you didn't know they would, and your having a bad day.
All these things, every little thing that is still working, how can I not want to worship the One who makes it all work. The one who paints the sky when the sun goes down, made up colors to put on trees, and who breathes life in all living things.
