Just wanted to type up a quick post to say how provisional our God is. We had our first wedding shower yesterday and it was so much fun!! :) We were able to spend time with some very special people, eat some very tasty (READ: SPICY!!) snacks, and really just have a great Saturday. . .even with some friends who had traveled a long way to come see us!
We sniffed spices and quickly learned that if curry is in a bag of spices, alllllll the other spices will smell like curry! It was hilarious! I managed to get cinnamon and oregano (I think) out of 8 spices. This was a really cool idea that L. got from her parents!
As for God being provisional, M. and I were excited to see that almost all of the things we REALLY needed. . .even for safety purposes (KLUTZ=ME!!) were given to us yesterday! Among those things were knives (I have been using M's really scary and dangerously sharp hunting knife!) and potholders (let's just say I've already burned myself on the oven once). AMAZING!
Later on, several of us just hung out at the house for awhile. . .and the awesome GRILL was put together right in the kitchen! M. is excited and we're already planning on some Labor Day grilling activities. :)
Now I'm off to write in my very special wedding book and write some thank you cards! <><

I am a mother.
This truth is starting to penetrate a culture-imposed shame:* The defining
moment and culmination of womanhood is in bearing children. ...
