Being sick this past week I wasn’t sure I was going to lose any weight–but I did–a whole pound! What a good way to start the day. On top of that I had a good time of prayer and Bible reading this morning (long overdue). And on top of that we’re all healthy again and my husband never got the sickness! And on top of that (!) it’s snowing! I can’t handle all the goodness. Oh wait, yes I can.

Jake -- My dear, sweet, husband. I affectionately call him, "the perfect husband" because he never seems to do anything wrong. In fact, if he wasn't doomed to live this life with me, he'd probably never even get mad. He's very even keel. He has a servant's heart to the uttermost. He's genuinely a good man, sincere, and bust-a-gut funny. Oh yah and he likes to wrestle...
Caed -- My oldest child, my firstborn, my gentle, silly, spirit, who fills our house with his Star Wars sound effects and fun facts he reads about at bed time. He's all about Lego's and Star Wars. Laid back, easy going, like his dad. He's a great big brother to a demanding little sister. Loves his buddy BlackJack. He's an inventor and explorer at heart and really just likes to have fun. I have a feeling he'll be jokester like his dad when he grows up. He's a sensitive and perceptive little 8 year old. He's our champ!
Kenna -- Two years younger than her brother, she goes by the nicknames of "diva", "Miss. A" (a for attitude), Sissy, stinky butt, and sweets. As long as you're playing with her, she's happy. She keeps us on our toes. If she was born first I'm sure she'd be a only child. But seriously, if it weren't for her spirited personality I'd be one lazy parent. She keeps me on my knees in prayer and my gears turning on how to be a better parent. I really wouldn't have it any other way. She brings spark and personality to our home. She loves dates with her daddy and hates school. She loves dollies and tea parties and being active. She's our baby girl.
Kelli -- Blog author, I am the mom of this household. I drive my family crazy I'm sure with my mood swings and love of staying up way to late. I like writing, reading, running, and going out with girl friends. I also love quiet evenings at home with my husband or going out on dates with him. Anytime alone with him is a good time. (except that one time when I was pregnant and we were going out to eat and he advised me that I shouldn't order the Oreo shake...bad idea).
One -- One is The One. Our Father God in Heaven. He is the center of our heart and home. If it weren't for him none of this would be possible. God, through his son Jesus, saved Jake and I before we were married. While we were sinners Christ died for us and accepted us and loved us. Jake and I truly love because Christ first loved us.

The Copper Scroll, By Joel Rosenburg -- this book is on the shelf. It's good but I haven't gotten back into it since I put it down.
Picked up my devotional today, My Utmost for his Highest. I love this devotional. I've been reading it off and on since 1999.
What Did I Dream Last Night
Not really remembering the dreams lately....
1/16/09 Last night...Gosh I know I had a dream this morning but cannot remember it. So I'll tell you the dream I had the other night. So weird. I was out running and peed my pants. Luckily I was next to my parents 5th wheel and so I hopped in. I shed my soiled garments and wondered "now what?" I have no fresh clothes and no one knows where I'm at. Then all the sudden this man starts trying to open the doors. He's looking at the trailer as if to buy it. I'm freaking out. I wrap myself in a blanket. He finally opens the door and I duck down and say, "Uh I can't come to the door right now...can you close the door." And he was like, "OH, I"m sorry" And then it was over. Weird. I have a strange mind.

I cannot remember last nights' dream. It's on the tip of my gray matter...but I can't grasp it. I hate it when that happens. But let me tell you about my Satanic dream I had a few night back... Our house was on fire. Jake was fighting it. I was kind of apathetic about it. Not too concerned. Then I went into the room with the fireplace and out pops Satan who, in this dream, was a bald man, with an evil looking, but human, face. He tried to pull me into the fire place. I was trying to yell "Jesus" but no sound was coming out, so I signed the letter J-E-S-U-S over and over again. And then it was over.

All I know is I had a tornado dream last night. Which by the way is a recurring theme since childhood. In last nights' dream I was running from it (like always). I was in a huge house with lots of corridors and stairs. I ran down to the basement (someone was with me). By the time we made it out the tornado was over. Earlier in the dream I had watched the tornado take out a power line. Interesting huh?

So yah last night I dreamt that I had a parasite growing in my leg. I thought it was a zit and then I started to pull it out and it was super long. Like a long white worm. I was mortified (as you can imagine). I happened to be in a room full of girls I know, and finally I couldn't hide what I was doing and burst into tears. "I have to go to the doctor," I bawled. Then they all ran over and began to examine my leg. By this time it was huge, probably 2 inch in diameter sore on my leg. That looked like it was a deflated blister. And then it was over.
Quick someone wish me sweet dreams for tonight...I need them.
Talk to me!
