Little Somethin'

I've been so busy with life that I haven't blogged...but I also haven't had very much to formulate a blog post about. I will go ahead a tell you that I am having an MRI on my heart on Monday, and then the cardiologist appointment on Friday. Would love the prayers! I already feel like I've been covered in prayer, but I know that they are so powerful, and are helping me continue having peace and go with confidence that the Lord is lighting my path. He has up until this point, so why would He not continue doing so? I will leave you with a picture, and I will be back writing soon. And I'll also let you know the results of my tests!

These are pictures from the Turner Syndrome conference...I know I've told you lots about it, but now you can see the awesomeness that it was for yourself!

This little girl, along with her mom and sister attended the TS conference. She has TS...her momma brought a nice camera, and she saw mine and wanted to use it. Right after I took this picture, I let her take some pictures on it.

She took this picture of me...I think it's pretty cute. I know it seems vain to put up a picture of myself up on here, but I wanted to show off her photo skills! She was so cute, and very much wanted my camera.

This is Emily and me. I met Emily 7 years ago at a TS camp. She was my camp counselor. Emily is beautiful on the inside and out, and is a friend to all she meets. She helped a lot with the logistics of the conference. She is very dear to my heart, and I know we will be lifelong friends. We were on the dance floor in this picture, naturally! :)



This is Natalie and me. We met in person for the first time actually at the airport getting a shuttle to the conference airport. We'd been internet friends for a while, but we new who each other were right away. It was fate that our planes landed about the same time in Buffalo :)

Here are some of the dad's groovin' on the dance floor, having fun too!

Music & Lyrics

I am a very lyrical person. Lyrics are a bigger part of a song than the musicality a lot of the time for me. Especially with Switchfoot songs...I know, I know. I am such a Switchfoot nerd. But, it's really because their lyrics just speak truth to me. Not long after I wrote my last post about going through a tough time, I was exercising in the morning. I usually listen to Bible on my phone while exercising. And then I will listen to music once I'm done. During this hard time, for a few days, I felt like I couldn't read/listen to my Bible. So, I would just listen to my music. And this song came on. It spoke to me, and reminded me that we are all faulted in this life...we all fall short. And it's on such a deep level. But, there is a hope and dependence on God that can carry us through this life...and that there will be a day when we are strong and completely whole in God. And until then, we can get glimpses of that perfection by being in community with God here on earth. Anyway, this song played and I remembered why it is that I chose the title of it as the title on my blog. Please read the lyrics! They are strong, powerful, enlightening and hopefully encouraging to you.


The Setting Sun

I've got a wound that doesn't heal,
Burning out again,
Burning out again

I've not sure which of me is real,
And I'm alone again,
Burning out again

My hope runs underneath it all,
The day that I'll be home

It won't be long, I belong,
Somewhere past the setting sun

Find me free, find me strong,
Somewhere back where I belong

Yeah, Yeah, (Yeah!)
Yeah, Yeah, (Yeah!)

Something shared with me again,
But I'm not buying it,
I'm not buying it

My wound goes deeper than the skin,
There's no hiding it,
So I'm not trying it
[ Lyrics from: http:/l ]
My hope runs underneath it all,
The day that I'll be home,

It won't be long, I belong,
Somewhere past the setting sun,
Find me free, find me strong,
Somewhere back where I belong

Yeah, Yeah, (Somewhere past the setting sun!)

Yeah, Yeah, (Yeah!)

Yeah, Yeah, (Going back where we belong!)

Yeah, Yeah, (I'll find you)
(The setting sun!)

Let the weak say I am strong, and it won't be long,
Let the right say I was wrong, and it won't be wrong,
Let us find where we belong,
Beyond the setting sun,
Beyond the setting sun

Yeah, Yeah

It won't be long, I belong,
Somewhere past the setting sun,
Find me free, find me strong,
Somewhere back where I belong
