Peace Like A River


It was a wide river, mistakable for a lake or even an ocean unless you'd been wading and knew its current. Somehow I'd crossed it... Now I saw the stream regrouped below, flowing on through what might've been vineyards, pastures, orhards... It flowed between and alongside the rivers of people; from here it was no more than a silver wire winding toward the city. - Leif Enger, Peace Like A River

Here is Joe Programmer at his new post. Looks like I'll be spending the bulk of my time in another room, away from my cubicle. So, I've had my phone number forwarded to where I am, so you can still call my regular work number.

Had nursery duty last night, so headed over there. (Turns out we didn't get any customers so we left early.) John hadn't been there for a little while so he was excited to go into the church. He went over to his favorite water fountain. He said several times "sunday school, sunday school", cuz that's where he had his little sunday school. They had fun having the run of the joint. John watched the Thomas video they have in there, and was distressed when it ended.

Hanna spit up her jel-yogurt on the way over to the church though, so was sticky and yucky. It was a white top, but Rhonda soaked it and sprayed it, and it all came out clean. Hanna likes that Almanzo/on the farm book that Mom got. I point to the animals and make the various animal sounds. Sometimes in the background if John is playing and he hears he'll do the sound. (I'll ask Hanna what sound does a cow make, and in the background John will say mmmoooooo). She's learning too, she'll point to an animal's eye and say "eye!" It's amazing how fast she is learning!
