one of the folders in my deskstop contains all the pictures which i seldom scan. the pics though filled with smiles pinch my heart because the people there left earlier than i expected, no, they did not die, but they considered an option where seperation is the immediate upshot. only prayer connects us.
though i still have a year before finishing school i think that period is short to cover my plan. what plan? to earn more Q-friendships in the Lord. time is the glue of strong bonds. time to dine, talk, study, sing and even play together. May God give me wisdom in nourishing the relationships He gifted me.
the "hi" in fb is nothing to a warm hug in person. i don't want to leave ADDU as a mere graduate but as a dear sister in the Lord. studying again in the library will give me more chances to share a smile or words of life or to tap somebody :). what do u think?-- my oh my the beauty of a shared life tugs me like no other.

Almighty God, the great I am Immovable rock, omnipotent, powerful, awesome Lord Victorious warrior, commanding King of Kings Mighty conqueror, and the only time the only time I ever saw Him run
CHORUS: Was when He ran to me, He took me in His arms Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again” Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes With forgiveness in His voice He said, “Son do you know I still love you?” He caught me by surprise when God ran
The day I left home I knew I’d broken His heart And I wondered then if things could ever be the same Then one night I remembered His love for me And down that dusty road ahead I could see It was the only time – it was the only time I ever saw Him run
And then He ran to me, He took me in His arms Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again” Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes With forgiveness in His voice He said, “Son do you know I still love you?” He caught me by surprise as He brought me to my knees When God ran – I saw Him run to me
BRIDGE: I was so ashamed, all alone and so far away But now I know He’s been waiting for this day
I saw Him run to me, He took me in His arms Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again” Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes With forgiveness in His voice I felt His love for me again
He ran to me, He took me in His arms Held my head to His chest, said “My son’s come home again” Lifted my face, wiped the tears from my eyes With forgiveness in His voice He said, “Son”, He called me Son He said, “Son do you know I still love you?” He ran to me and then I ran to Him When God ran
God you are the best. Thank You for opening my eyes that i can see the love that surrounds me. Thank You for the harvest and provision that we never starve. Above all, thank You for preserving my relationship with my family and my friends because with them life becomes more meaningful.
Babysitting is one of my interests but I haven't tried yet bathing one who is younger than 18 months old. My favorites are those aging 5 months to 8 months for they are still very behave. It feels good when you hear your name as one of those few words they know and that indicates closeness. But I am more amazed with the parents when I see their odd and hidden talents like military men singing lullabies or do a peekaboo.
By June 2011, the first person i've babysit will be a college student aleady and it implies that I am getting old or how young I was when i started looking after babies and toddlers.
TIP: If you play with toddlers, you will enjoy it also if it is the only thing that you'll do for the moment otherwise you will consider the kiddo competing with the TV or your work and sooner or later you will be impatient towards them.
Take care of the young ones and they will love you for life or the least you will earn their respect especially when they recognize that you do it not out of duty.
