Gosh this week has been rough. I wish the weekend could last forever.
I am going to stay as far away from people as I can.
This week was SO stressful at work. It felt like every day was 17 years. No joke.
& It does not help that for the past two or three days I have been unexplainably emotional.
Today I was out with the three to five year olds at recess. I finally started to cry....and of course the kids then decide they all want a drink of water...So it went kind of like this.
Kid: Miss Noelle, I'm thiiiirsty!
Me: Hold on. (Through a sob..)
It's really not the kids that make me so stressed out. It's the inconsistancy. Sometimes I feel like a bouncy ball. It's making me crazy. Ask Shannah...
 I love all of the kids. There's a special few that I have really bonded with. So much that when I clock out I stay anyway just to spend time with them.
Working with kids is a possible career choice I think....I don't know what age group, Maybe some kids who don't wet themselves. :)

Glory


My favorite song as of Winter of 2008 is a song called Glory by Selah & Nichole Nordeman. I've listened to it probably a thousand times. I still listen to it like once a day. It's not only a beautiful melody but the lyrics are also beautiful and very, very true.

One day eyes that are blind will see you clearly
And one day all who deny will finally believe
One day hearts made of stone will break in pieces
And one day chains once unbroken will fall down at your feet
So we wait for that one day come quickly

Chorus
We want to see your Glory
Every knee falls down before thee
Every tongue offers you praise
With every hand raised
Singing Glory
To you and unto you only
We'll sing Glory to Your name

One day voices that lie will all be silent
(For awhile I thought of this line as people who tell lies won't be able to tell them anymore. It was on my way home from taking my friend back to school when I saw the line from a different perspective. One day Satan will be defeated, along with the demons that torment us with self depricating thoughts. They feed lies into us through movies, books, and music. Telling us we need to be smarter, that we aren't good enough, not pretty enough, not thin enough, not muscley enough. They torment some until they are deep into depression. They convince some that ending their lives is the only way out. One day those voices will be gone.)
One day all that's divided will be whole again
One day death will retreat and wave it's white flag
One day love will defeat the strongest enemy
So we wait for that one day come quickly

Rev 20:1-3I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss and holding in his hand a great chain. 2He seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. 3He threw him into the Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.

We know not the day or the hour
Or the moments in between
But we know the end of the story
When we'll see(your glory)

Mark 13:32 (KJV) — But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.



FYI: I want this song played at my wedding...or my funeral....whichever comes first. :) Glory!
