on route to church tonight.

"do i have any boogers?" Laura says as she frantically pulls down the car visor with the tiny mirror in the middle. Lee is trying to pay attention to the road and can't help her out.

"worse!" she says, horrified. "Nose Hairs!"

so, anyway, tonight I taught my first low beginner english class. i had three students. one from mexico, one from colombia, and one from el salvador. they were all very sweet. one was particularly terrified. he's only been here four months. i taught the consonants bcdf. i can't imagine being in his shoes. body language is a very strong communicative tool. maybe i made that word up - since being out of school, and not reading as much, i have lost so much of my vocabulary.

i finished my painting! i deliver it tomorrow and should receive a nice sum of money for it. many more paintings to do.

did you know that supposedly the Bible says "do not fear" 365 times or something? wow, i'd like to look into that. even if it's half that, that's still a lot of times to say a certain thing. and even if God says it once, well, that should be enough. but i guess he knows i need repetition.

just like my english students. bbbbccccddddffff. buh buh buh buh cuh cuh cuh cuh duh duh duh duh fuh fuh fuh fuh. cab cab cab cab cab cab bed bed bed bed bed dad dad dad dad dad cob cob cob cob food food food food food

i'm pretty sure will is teething, and although last night was a very good night, i'm fearful about tonight - there it is again - fear. he bites and chews on everything especially his poor little hands.

let's see any other random thoughts to unload - my husband likes to spin in the kitchen - like a ballerina. i find this very odd, but funny - he's a big guy and our kitchen isn't huge.

if you are reading this, please pray that lee would find a job, and not only that, but a job that he loves very soon. hopefully in the atlanta area, but the carolinas are okay too.
