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

On Saturday we went to a sweethearts banquet for the church. The entertainment was a Christian comedian, was pretty funny. Anyway, the ladies got helium heart-shaped balloons and roses. We got two balloons, and took them home for the kids. They have had a ball running around the house with them, watching them float to the ceiling, etc... (John can just barely reach up and get the string, Hanna needs help. Frequently) This morning one of the balloons seems to be running out of steam, and wasn't floating very high. John looked at it and said "It's not working." ha.

When John got up this morning, he was still a bit sleepy, and he yawned, and then he said "I'm yawning because I'm sleepy." Hee.

We're still working our way through the Westminster Dog show I taped. We already know who won, but it's fun to see all the dogs. The next group we have to watch is my favorite, the hound group. My fantasy is to get an Irish Wolfhound and a Scottish Deerhound. And maybe a Russian Wolfhound (Borzoi).
