Not Funny

It is so cold outside it's not even funny. I'm outside for like 3 minutes and I can't feel my fingers! I literally reach inside my pocket for my keys and have no idea what's going on in there. And yes I had really thick gloves on. So I'm stuck inside on this Friday night after a long day at work. You know, holding a 10 pound baby for two hours is a hard thing to do. Way to go all you Mom's out there. You deserve a whole Mother's Month, not just a day.
Speakibng of awesome mom's, my amazing mother gave this book to me for Christmas and I think that I'm going to read the rest of the night. I love this book!


One of my favorite quotes from it so far is this one.

"There are no 'if's' in God's world. And no safer places than other places. The center of His will is our only safety- Let us pray that we may always know it."

Corrie's sister said this to her after a series of bombs were dropped in Holland near their home, and Corrie found a piece of shrapnel which had fallen on her pillow just after leaving her bed. Barely missing her own head. Anyway, this women is amazing and this book is so great and has already given me so much insight to the war and the situation that good christian people were in during those hard times. If you have the chance, pick it up and read it.

I guess that's all for tonight. Have a happy Sunday!
