When in situations of stress we wonder if there is anymore to give. We can be comforted to know that God, who knows our capacity perfectly, placed us here to succeed. No one was foreordained to fail. Let us remember that we were measured before and were found equal to our tasks. When we feel overwhelmed, let us recall the assurance that God will not over-program us; he will not press upon us more than we can bear.

4th of July
We had a GREAT 4th of July. On the 3rd we drove up to Richfield to spend some good quality time with my parents. On the morning of the 4th we went to the Parade and then to the festivities at the City Park. A tradition of Richfield of course! We saw a lot of old friends and got to catch up with them for a few minutes. It was way fun! Well for me, Todd was a little bored. We then went to the Chidester's to see little Sydney. It was way fun talking to Katelyn and holding a new born baby girl, Todd needed the practice. The rest of the afternoon we just hung out at the house and I took a nap. That evening we drove to Milford to spend time with Todd's family there. We got to see his Grandpa which is always a highlight of Milford for us. We watched the city fireworks there which were fun and exciting. Afterwards we went to a family member's house and lit our own fireworks. After that, the kids brought out the sparklers. The picture is of Todd playing with his sparkler... yes needless to say he did singe a little piece of his hair and we all laughed. I think he had more fun than the little kids. We got home around 12:30 that night very tired after our long day of visiting with friends and celebrating our nation's birthday! I hope you all had a good 4th of July!
