G2K ended a week ago Sunday. It was my first Commitment to Christ leadership role that i finished to completion! That's cause for celebration! I believe through God's Grace and Guidance that a wishy washy girl like me really can blossom into a responsible (yet fun and adventurous) adult who truly wants to Glorify God in all of her daily actions.
Last weekend I was blessed to have Noel and Cerisa slumber party it up with Grace and I, and we also all ventured to Chelsea and Michaela's dance recital. I loved that it all worked out and two of my favorite memories from the morning are that Noel (not quite 1 yrs old) danced with fervor while standing on my lap! And when Cerisa heard the Beatles song I Want to Hold Your Hand, she belted out in the middle of the recital "hey, i know this song!" it was sooo darn cute!
Then I was blessed to have Aaron and Lisa take Grace for the evening and I was able to spend some quality girl time with Brita as we welcomed her into the 30 group, and Leah, Mandi, Sarah and Jess.
Last Monday we had our second Life Together group, I sat next to Judy (who wasn't at the first gathering) and to my surprise she was headed to Mentor for Memorial Day weekend, my Teenie Tiny hometown! Turns out she was married there 12 years ago at the Inn! That was pretty cool.
Yesterday I had the privilege and honor to be at the Mentor Community Hall for our annual Memorial Day Service put on by the Mentor Legion Members Post #421. My sister sang Amazing Grace and we had George L. Schulstad as the guest speaker. He was delightful and i LOVE that he told me about his homemade stuffed elephant his mother had made him when he was a boy. God knows I love when people i meet (or have known for years) feel peace enough around me to share things they "never have told a soul" ;) thanks George.
