Dear Diary

Macy (8) has a diary. She brought it to church tonight and took notes. Here's a few lines:
Dad is preaching to the people. Dad said it is better to go to a house of mourning than to go to a house of feasting, for death is the destiny of every man. But rejoice insofar as you share Christ's sufferings . . .

Those are God's words that Dad just presented to me. They will be treasured forever.

Excuse me if I'm a little verklempt. :-)

1 - Wow. Really, wow. Very cool.

2 - Did she really write 'insofar'? Clearly the child of a writer-geek. :-D

Yes, but she was copying the verses off of the slides on the screen. :-)

I always loved having Macy in classes -- she's always been insightful, funny, and a delight! I miss seeing your beautiful family. Susan
