Good quote...
 
My friend's father is a pastor. She left her alcoholic husband in October. It's been hard for her. She was talking to her father last night and he told her "Life is, for the most part, orderly. But sometimes it's messy and it's gray. Either way, you have to claim your joy." She shared it with me and I loved it, so I thought I would share it with all of you.

That is a really nice quote. Life is crazy. I really have to look at the blessings in my life and just be positive. And not let what is happening in my life take away my joy.

Isn't your baby due soon? I would say that is pure joy!

I am 30 weeks pregnant. My baby boy is due 7/28/10. It is a joy. I see a little boy walking along with his mother, and I just tear up thinking that will be me in the future.

Wow! That's great. That is also my new boyfriend's b-day : ) I'm excited for you!
