I wuv my putty tat

Another good day with the cat. He initiated curling up on my lap tonight for the first time, which made my heart all warm. He's making this home.

I made beef stew today with my new handy dandy (small) crock pot. Mmmmm!! It tasted just like my mom's, which was my goal. And I got way more ingredients than will fit in the thing at any one time, so it looks like I'll just have to suffer and have stew a few times the next couple weeks. :)

We had a leaders' rally at church tonight, and it was much needed. Good time for refreshment and worship and prayer and for re-invisioning. Stephanie and I are alone this semester in leading the 5th graders, and I just need the Lord's help. I need to love them more and be more faithful in praying for them daily. My knowledge of my need for Jesus is increasing each day. Praise God that His resources are endless. He is so good to me.
