Did I wake you up?

Psalm 121

A song of ascents.

¹ I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
    where does my help come from?
² My help comes from the Lord,
    the Maker of heaven and earth.

³ He will not let your foot slip—
    he who watches over you will not slumber;
⁴ indeed, he who watches over Israel
    will neither slumber nor sleep.

⁵ The Lord watches over you—
    the Lord is your shade at your right hand;
⁶ the sun will not harm you by day,
    nor the moon by night.

⁷ The Lord will keep you from all harm—
    he will watch over your life;
⁸ the Lord will watch over your coming and going
    both now and forevermore.

I woke up several times last night. Call it old age. At least I know my mom and dad did it, and they're older than me. Rest his soul, only now my daddy is with Jesus! <3

Anyhow, I took the opportunity to visit my cats in the basement last night. They are down there in hiding while Lux is here, my nephew's shepherd, because they are visiting us, because we are on vacation! We didn't go anywhere this week, but my husband took off work so we could spend this last week together as a family before the kids head back to school on Monday. Nothing special, just a special family, at least I think so. ;) I did get a dinner date with the man of my life and enjoyed going to Timbukto! It was a restaurant where we enjoyed the best crab cakes around, on the house from our lovely daughter, Michelle, finally using the Christmas gift card she gave us, yum! :) 

Back to the cats. After some cuddles with them in the basement, assuring them that I haven't forgotten about them, I cleaned their boxes and proceeded outside to the trash in the wee hours. That's when I saw this!

A beautiful full moon displayed by The Lord who never sleeps, and never ceases to watch over me. 

I fell back to sleep after that, waking to the sound of our our oldest princess (Michelle) calling me with these words: "Gooood Morning! ... Did I wake you up?" I told her I would call her back as I wasn't up yet, but before I do that (or not because she should be at work by now) here's to hoping you have a good day as well, sharing my charge from the day that just came through my cell phone from Shine FM: 

Good morning from 95.1 SHINE-FM! "If we're growing, we're always going to be out of our comfort zone." - John C Maxwell

Now we both have something to think about. ;)

With Love,
