Today is the day

Melanie - August 22, 2008

Umm, yeah. I was having some technical difficulties posting yesterday. It seems that I was experiencing some sort of server error or some other such thing.

So, I went to bed with the best of intentions to check back in periodically to see if it would let me post. I checked back in at 9 a.m. with no luck and then I left my house for the day and didn't return home until after 6 p.m. at which time it seemed pointless to post.

This is why I need an iPhone. I should never be away from the internet for eight hours.

Anyway, my day yesterday was filled with a million errands, but the biggest moment was going to Meet the Teacher at Caroline's Kindergarten. I don't know if she was nervous, but I was. I felt like the new kid at school for the first time in many years. I've prayed so much about her new teacher and her new friends and I know it's going to be great, but it's a change. I'm not known for adapting well to change.

The rest of the day was spent picking up drycleaning, laundry, going to the pool. Basically trying to squeeze every last drop out of Summer.

And now, I'm ready for the Siesta Fiesta. I've been looking forward to this weekend for the last year and can't believe it's here. I'm picking Sophie up from the airport around noon and the fun will begin.

I can't tell you how excited I am to meet so many people in real life who I feel like I already know. The internet is amazing because it puts you in touch with people you would otherwise never meet, but then to actually get to meet them? It's the best.

Can't wait!

I just know we're going to have a great time. I know God is going to speak through Beth.

And I know we'll all head home blessed beyond measure.

We'll be checking in throughout the weekend with updates, so stay tuned!
