Tanner had to work last night, so we decided to go to the mid-morning service for church. Now, this is a service that we don't usually attend since we typically sing in the choir for the early service and late service. So we didn't know what to expect. I guess it was a little risky since it would be Jonathan's first time attending church with us, but I figured God could take care of all of that.
So, just like Jonathan's mouth dropped open when there was invocation at the fireworks, he stared in wide eyed amazement as our pastor began teaching us how to live via the Declaration of Independence. Some of you might think this is a little weird, but I don't think it is any stranger than a sermon around the writings of C.S. Lewis or Martin Luther. At the end of the service, Jonathan looked at me and said, "Wow, I don't think I've ever heard anything so...so...ordinary." I nodded. Yes, the Lord's burden is light.
On our way back from the fireworks last night, Reagan found a cell phone on the side of the road, so this morning the owner came to pick it up and gave us $30 for all of the bother. Reagan is one happy little girl. She can't wait to go buy a toy! I've thought about making her save some of it in her piggy bank, but I'm still thinking about how to convey the idea to a two year old.
We drove all the way to Houston today so that Jonathan could take a look at a car. It's a 97 silver Honda Civic. Apparently he was satisfied with all of its machination since he bought it and drove it home. So now we have two cars in our driveway which is barely designed to accommodate one.
