I took Juergen out on a date last night. Our new idea is that once a month one of us will
plan a date with the other one in mind.
So I took him first to a cafe in a big music store. After coffee we looked at guitars. Then we had pizza at one of his favorite restaurants. And then I had tickets for fast and furious
7. Many of you know one of the main
actors (Paul Walker) died last year in a car accident. They did a tribute to him at the end of the
film. Juergen cried. I wanted it to be a
good time. It ended up being a sober
reflection about life, and how fragile it can be. We thought of all those students in Kenya that
lost their lives this week. Imagine the
courage it took not to deny Christ. Sometimes
it feels so strange to have it so good in a world of such great pain. But I
know how everything can change in 3 short days.
You have the cross…and everything seems lost. And then God moves in his great power. And
Jesus is alive!
My niece had a beautiful baby girl named Olivia Rose (Beautiful name). Everyone is very excited and thank God healthy! Congratulations to the whole family! Hugs to my sister Shelley who is now a proud grandma for the 2nd time. My sister Dianna has 6 grand kids (I think). My brother and I are too young for such an blessing. At least our kids are too young. I'm going to have to wait to be called grandma. Here is a cool picture I took off Shelley's blog. It shows Eric (the tired but proud grandpa) Lissa with her first daughter Charlotte, and then a sleeping Olivia Rose. 3 generations in one shot. How fast life goes by! How beautiful life can be!
