The fog is clearing.

After three days in bed, I am up and about again. Carol and I went walking this morning and I didn't spend the whole time coughing. It was nice to be outside. We are to get a couple of snow showers this week, so it was nice to get out while we can.

Saturday, I was still feeling crummy, but I went shopping with my girls. This is a big milestone for Laura. She will be attending her first dance on Wednesday and she needed a new outfit. She will have a male "friend" go with her. She asked him to go. This was a bit hard to take as I think and will always think that Laura is too young to even give boys a second thought. I must say, she was very sensible in her choice of clothing and I think she will look nice, but not too nice. It's hard to think that my girls are turning into young women.

Sunday, we all went to church. It was a great service. The focus was on surrendering "all" to God. That is so hard for me, because I am a control freak. I want to have everything planned out and going according to the plan. This can't always be and I have a hard time adjusting. I am going to try harder to surrender "all". Please pray for me and my efforts.

Sunday afternoon, I went to see five of my students perform in their Amadeus concert. I sat there and was amazed at how good they are. I was so very proud to be their teacher. I had to pinch myself to believe that they would come to "me" for lessons. I still can't believe that I love what I do, so much.

This is a three day week for us, so today I am trying to catch up on all the things that fell behind while I was sick. I hope all of you have a glorius day.

Glad you're feeling better. And woah -- Laura is going to a dance with a boy?! I can't believe she's old enough for that stuff to start yet, either! Post pics of the new duds later in the week if you can. Love!
