hint of something new in the air...

the smells of Christmas: the smell of holiday treats, burning fires in their fireplaces, pine trees, candy canes...
it's all so exciting! i'm more excited about this Christmas then i have been in along time, and i'm not sure why. i'm so thankful for where God has put me. He has blessed me with an awesome and loving family, saved me from the word, and on top of everything, He has blessed me by being my lover. i really want a deeper understanding of this season. for right now, God is just showing me how He loves to have fun with me, even baking brownies with me! He just loves for us to just delight in each other. He is always good. and that's that. You give and take away, but still my heart will say blessed be Your name.

I colored this picture and put it up in my living room at college. :)

Hehe! I was studying for finals in the library here this morning and took a break to read that book. It's really good. You should read it. "Blue Like Jazz" by Donald Miller. But I just liked that story. It spoke to me. Through a bunny. :) (It's also illustrated in the book... which makes it better.)
