Things I've been doing to distract myself from him:
This is funny. Watch the clip.
Congratulating my beautiful friend Julia. See there are millions of people under the age of 19 in the world. In those millions, there are a several hundred thousand who play guitar. Among those several hundred thousand there are a few thousand who play guitar well. And squished among them are a few hundred who are really excellent at their craft. Included in them, there are eleven who stand apart from the rest. Eleven. Yes, eleven. In the world. And she is one of them. Julia Marie Sinclair, from Madrid, New York, will be competing against the best guitarists in the world under the age of 19 on May 30th in California. So, regardless of the outcome of this competition, she is still counted among the top eleven guitarists of her age in the world. And I'm so proud of her.
Sitting on the couch with her. She came home with me, in case you've forgotten, and I love being with her. I remind her often of my original impression of her, in case she's forgotten, just so I don't forget that first impressions of people, though not easily forgotten, can be remedied. She remedied very nicely thank you. And she's pretty to boot.
Realizing that a good majority of Keith Green's songs use Pachelbel's Canon in D chord progression. D, A, Bm, F#m, G, D, G, A. Boring when played over and over again without words, but okay when they've got words to them.

Yep..... the boys thought it funny.
Other great feats: Aaron can balance a Smartie on his tongue for 60 seconds. Ben for 16 seconds. Top that! :)
And are you hearing alot of Pachelbel's Canon these days?
Will I see you one more time before you leave? Even for a drop by? I know you are in high demand, but maybe a quick hi and bye would suffice. If not, know that I loved seeing you and meeting your dear friend Kelly. Hope I see you both again soon, and that I'll be up and around to take better care of you than I did this time. (Not that my precious girls didn't do a great job!)
Come home soon! I miss you.

You know, I have lived in the North Country all my life. I became a Christian in June 2003. I have been a part of both of those "communities" before CFC. It is not just those two things that make this place "home."
What God is doing in and through the people of CFC is exciting, comforting, fascinating, energizing and, above all, to be treasured. These people, which I am proud and humbled to call myself a part, have been called to this place by God. He has used people by placing in them vision and a desire to share that vision.
God established a vision for a community, a family, of believers and people have responded. I get excited when I think about what God fully intends to do through CFC.
"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen." Eph 3,20-21
Wow.
It was great to see you and to meet Kelly.
