does your life ever run away with you? mine’s trying to do that right now. i’m desperately fighting consumption, but i suppose the most authentic way to handle the chaos is to drag you along with me. :)

the top five things on the mind of yours truly:

1. Sweet Baby Ella. She’s improving and growing stronger! I can’t stop pleading with Jesus for the best possible outcome for the Wigintons. I’m so encouraged by the response of the people at theVine — it is awesome to see the church BE the church! It strengthens my resolve to work as hard as I can everyday for theVine, because I can see that people’s lives have been and are being changed! Look at this precious little hand:

2. My interesting new job starts full-time on Monday. The subject is new. The curriculum is new. The people are new. The building is new. The schedule is new. T’s daycare is new. Did I mention that everything is new?

3. Lots going on at theVine. Working on a new set, meeting about Christmas Eve tomorrow, dreaming about opportunities to serve people, thinking, thinking, thinking… Good thinking, but thinking.

4. My sweet girls. I love being home with them. Their personalities are very different, and they’re awesome in their own unique ways. They’re so my favorite.
Tanner is expressing interest in serving on the Production Team,
and Katelynn is loving the summer.

She is gorgeous and growing up so fast…

5. I got to read this magazine today! It made me really excited about football season…the first game is in 39 days!!! I know it sounds ridiculous, but the anticipation of watching Georgia football makes me want fall to hurry up and get here. :) I love being a fan. Maybe that’s why my senior superlative was Most Spirited. ha ha LAME

and there you have it, folks. Captain Random. wish it was more profound, but for today, that’s all i’ve got.
