“Ants do what ants do, without pondering about their options. And when a boot flattens their ant friends and blots out several months of their work, they do not speculate on the meaning of it all.” -Paul W. Jones, A Season in the Desert: Making Time Holy

“I knew what I had now. I had a vision, fit for a life’s wager. I could drink to the “dream.” And my wager was this: If there is a God who makes this divine-human promise, we will be co-creators. But if the vision is only a cruel tease, I will still live the vision so that my life is a protest against a Godless universe.”-Paul W. Jones, A Season in the Desert: Making Time Holy

As I was watching Police Academy 4 last night, I noticed that Tony Hawk was David Spade’s skating stunt double. Pretty sweet, huh?

I had a prenatal exam today. Kyrie’s head is down, and her estimated weight is 2 lbs., which is great. Her heartbeat was 156. Nice and fast. I’m still measuring small, but the baby’s just the right size. That’s all that matters. Rick and I did a bunch of registering at Target today and I had to be pulled away from the clothes more than once. I love baby girl clothes, but I guess we need more practical stuff as well.

We’re still having fun in Spokane, and I don’t really want to go back… but I am thinking about decorating the baby’s room and all that fun stuff, so that gives me some incentive to go back home. For now, we’re enjoying beautiful summery weather, the new above ground pool that my parents bought, and a knock-hockey board constructed by Forrest and Rick. Knock-hockey is something Rick and I discovered last year at camp when we were counselors.

I think I’ll go join Rick and watch Police Academy 4. *sigh*
