So far, so good

Sean only ended up having a fever for a few hours then he was fine. By bedtime he was running around playing with Ethan. Today he seems a little sluggish but still hasn't had a fever. Jarod and I both feel a cold coming on, so we are hoping that is what it is.

This weekend Northside is hosting the area wide women's retreat. Jennifer Rothschild is the speaker. She is an amazing woman! Jarod is in charge of the tech team (I think it's funny he's going to be in the auditorium with hundreds of women!) and I am helping to lead up the registration/information desk. I get to do that with my friend, Carrie, so that will be fun.

Our church has started a 60:60 experiment. It's from the book "Soul Revolution" by John Burke (I think!). The basic premise is to practice having God present in ever moment of your day. You set your watch, pda, cell-phone, whatever you want to use, to beep every 60 minutes for 60 days. When it beeps, you stop and reconnect with God. It's a time to be real and honest and to thank God for always being with you and to ask what He would want you to do in that moment. I tell you, it is changing me! I'll write more on this later when we are further into it, but it is convicting me and encouraging me and changing me. I love it! It is encouraging to have the whole church doing this together! It's fun to hear people's watches beep at them, and even on facebook to see people encouraging one another to do this! It's very exciting! I can't wait to see what the next 6 weeks brings!

I guess that's it for now!
