Crazy Day.

so it was the first day back to school in 4 days. its weird but i was actually anticipating it. you can only be at home so much. so yeah, i was excited to see all my friends and not be at home pretty much. so there is something special going on the next 2 weeks called the olympics, i hope you've heard of them.. if not.. there's probably something really wrong with you. anyway the winter olympics are awesome. personally my favotite. so i stayed up later than 'normal' last night to watch them. bad idea. so today you could very easily was i was tired. probably more than that though. i guess the next two weeks i'll deal with being tired because the olympics are only on ever 4 years. anyway. so on top of being tired, my eyes were super dry all day so it basically just hurt to keep them open. and yesterday i was also being genius and went running. stupid. so stairs were painful today. THEN, we had a mission trip meeting after school. that was fine. i really just wanted to be home at that point though. so my mom and i get in the car and head home. as we drive we see some guy getting arrested, great, that always brightens someones day. then we stop at the bank on the way. i listen to music in the car while she's doing whatever she had to do in the bank. she comes out we get prepared to leave. start the car.. well try to. yeah she really didnt want to start. so we look at each other "crap". well this sucks, ahh i just want to be home! so we proceed to call my dad. he says the battery is probably dead. awesome. so my mom watches as people walk by our car and asks each one of them if they have jumper cables. finally one does. he was a nice man. he jumped our car for us very nicely. thank you mr. stranger. so we drive home. and that end my very eventful annoying day. good thing Jesus loves me a lot.

Boy.

i have the cutest nephew on the face of this planet. period. that is all i have to say.

Brother. Nephew.

every time i glance at my nephew i see my brother-in-law, eric, all over him. i see the joy that eric has in Jesus and i see how much he loves him. eric is just the most amazing man of God i have ever met. he loves Jesus with all of heart and that light that eric has shines through his son. everytime i am with them together i just love to look at the look that eric always seems to have on his face. it is a proud daddy look. it makes me smile. zechariah is the most blessed little boy i have ever met in my life. he has a dad who loves Jesus so much and will tell him about Him as he grows up. eric is on fire for Jesus and you can see that so easily. yes, everyone says that zechariah and eric look exactly alike... and don't get me wrong they do. but i always seem to look past that and see how alike they are in that they are both sons of God and eric has the privilidge to watch over and care for zechariah. i always see that in eric. he was made to be a dad, and was made to marry my sister. he was made to be the father of my nephew and raise him to love Jesus just as much as him. i honestly could go on forever about how incredible he is. but there is just one more thing to say. when i look into zechariahs eyes i see the love of God and the joy of his Savior Jesus. and when i look at eric.. i see the same thing and i know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this little boy recieved that look from his earthly and heavenly daddy.
