Signed :) How do you make a post 'sticky'? I have often wondered that.

And Miles To Go....

Hi! Thank you so much for coming to visit my blog today at http://brewerfamily8.blogspot.com
You asked me if I was a flybaby and I must ask what is a flybaby? :) I have never heard of that. Looking forward to hearing from you and have a great weekend.

lucky stuff From blogging with my students (in the internet English course I am teaching), I learned two new things about The Dragon Boat Festival this week. I learned this from Amy: OH~~~ we have a very specially ＂Luckly Thing＂ and you can hang up it just like a necklace, AND it can protect you safe & well this year, moreover it's smell fragrant.I call that ＂fragrant package＂in English, because I don't know how to say that word,HA~ I learned this from Tim: Some say if we can stand the egg upright at noon on the day of Dragon Boat Festival, it would bring us good luck for the rest of the year. No one ever said teachers knew it all. I learn so much from my students!! On a more serious note though, do you see a pattern here? My students, my neighbors, my dear friends trust in "horses and chariots" (Psalm 20:7), they trust in auspicious items, and desire lucky things and lives. Would you please join me in praying for them they too will place their trust in the name of the Lord our God? Please ask God to open their eyes to the truth that auspicious stuff has no power to make lucky things happen. The Most High God is an all-powerful, all-loving God, and we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose" (Romans 8:28). May they one day soon know it too!!

oh, baby! For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them. (Psalm 139:13-16) Babies--they are so precious. I know not if I will ever be a mother. I know not if I will ever experience what if feels like to have a human being intricately woven inside of me. I long to . . . I desire to . . . but, I know not. For now, I must be content with holding little bundles of blessings that belong to others (like the one pictured here who belongs to one of my students). I can cradle them, snuggle with them, sing to them, rub my cheek against their fuzzy heads, kiss their chubby little cheeks, and then I must give them back to their moms and dads. It is not easy to stay content when everything inside of screams with the desire to be a mother. Instead of children to raise, all I have for now is hope. And, I don't even know if that hope will ever not be deferred. All I know is that for now it is. But that is ok, because like I mentioned yesterday, the Most High God is both all-good and all-powerful all the time. He saw me while I was still an unformed substance. He cannot not keep His promises. He is a great gift-giver, a Father who likes to give gifts to his children. He is trustworthy. It is far more than worthwhile for me to trust Him alone--even with deferred hopes and strong desires. Father, I thank you for so graciously helping me not to covet, not to envy. I could not on my own. Please continue to keep bitterness at bay and hope, even though deferred, burning bright. I place my trust in You alone.
