Jewells of Thought

Yesterday I found a few pairs of my aunts shoes to wear. This morning I wore the pair that I knew would go well with my blue jean dress. It went really well with it. I felt so weird and yet comforted that they were my aunt’s shoes. She always looked good with sandals or her flip-flops. So I painted my toe-nails this morning before Sunday School.

I felt I needed to elevate my usual style. I’m not good with painting fingernails or toe-nails. Yet I thought I needed to do so today for Aunt Carol.

I was even taken back when Uncle Jim noticed the shoes when we visited Grandma today. I was amazed when he was heartened that the shoes would be used and used by family. Still… I will remember where they came from and cherish my aunt through using her hand picked shoe selections.

Today went on to be a spectacular day. This is just another way of God working in my life. If I had not made certain decisions lately I would not have been able to witness this beautiful sight.

I taught Kindergarten and somehow switched to Primary. However there were times I had kids at five different ages at times. It was different sometimes each week. Little Max was one of my students and today he was baptized. It was such a blessing. I have some cute pictures of him and my niece together over 6 years ago.

Tonight after Church I got an invite to celebrate with their family. It was unexpected and another blessing today. I feel full this evening and tired as well as blessed immensely.
