Random Ramblings

* All told, last week's storm dropped 5 feet of snow and 2-3 inches of rain from Monday night until Friday night. Amazingly, by Saturday afternoon, the roads were only wet, the sky was blue, and the snow looked beautiful. Doesn't it always look better after the shoveling and driving in it is done?

* I've decided that at this point in my pregnancy, I'd rather have people tell me I look big than what I keep hearing: "You're so small!" I may look small, but Wazel is way up in my ribs - making it uncomfortable to breathe, sing, talk, and sit . . . and according to the Dr., Wazel is growing just fine.

* I've reflected lately how grateful I am for prayer - to be able to pray for family and friends, for friend's children, for friends of friends . . . and to know that others are praying for me and Ken. Prayer is a powerful tool; I believe in the power of prayer and am grateful for that knowledge.

* Ken got Wazel's "nursery" set up this week. Hope she doesn't mind looking up her own dresses :)
