The Lacher Family

Emily at bedtime tonight (with her arms wrapped around me tight): Mommy, I would stay stuck to you all night if I could. Like a glue stick.

Oh how I love that girl.

Everyone is tired after a fun cookout with friends tonight. Hopefully that adds up to a good night’s sleep. On a personal note, I am adopting Psalm 37:3-8 (especially v8) as my mantra and am thankful that tomorrow is a new day. I especially like the NLT version:

3 Trust in the Lord and do good.
Then you will live safely in the land and prosper.
4 Take delight in the Lord,
and he will give you your heart’s desires.

5 Commit everything you do to the Lord.
Trust him, and he will help you.
6 He will make your innocence radiate like the dawn,
and the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun.

7 Be still in the presence of the Lord,
and wait patiently for him to act.
Don’t worry about evil people who prosper
or fret about their wicked schemes.

8 Stop being angry!
Turn from your rage!
Do not lose your temper—
it only leads to harm.

Goodnight all.
