Today, Ryan went to get the girls from Roy and Carol and made it home before my friend Angeleena got here to get me to go do our nails. Kenzie asked if she too could go, so we took her along. Not thinking anything would come of her watching us, she had other plans. We all three got our pedicures! She sat on the edge of the big chair and let the nail tech massage her and cut her nails, then came the painting, and then all of a sudden, she said, "Can I have a flower on them?" so she got this cool flower on all of her toes! Then while our techs were finishing our feet, Kenzie went on to the first nail station in the front of the nail salon and sat while they did her manicure! She got the same flower design on her fingernails. I got that design on my nails as well, I did a french with red tips on my toes. Angeleena did the same as me only in a different color. Kenzie's color was matched to her pink outfit she was wearing! We had a great girls day out!

Much like the way legos connect to erect the building or vehicle you are trying to create, without connecting pieces, our lives would fall apart. It's not often that we take time to reflect on those connections in meaningful ways. If I am honest, when we moved from Indiana back to Florida, we didn't appreciate the connections we had and so as I look back I wonder what life would have been like if we'd not only appreciated those connections, but supported them in meaningful ways. Since moving to Greenville, not only have we made connections, but we've made it a part of life to connect with those people we've met that have become more like family than friends. We took the time to find a church that really believes in connecting with their people and not in a way that makes the patrons of the church feel like they are just a player in the game of chess and that player's job is to be
that's one smart kid!
