My 100th post

I was planning to write a post this evening about the paper birds nests we had planned to make, but unfortunately a very unexpected close to death accident happened earlier this evening to my oldest son and a friend/classmate/neighbor of ours while they were outside playing. They are both okay, as we were able to make it to them just in time, but I am still pretty shaken. My heart will not stop pounding and my stomach is in knots. Obviously I forfeited our activity in place of much needed prayer and praise to God for his protection. Oh sweet Jesus, what a wake up call this night has been.

For my 100th post I am sharing a song with you that has comforted me time and time again, including tonight. Over the Rhine is an amazing band from Cincinnati that J and I finally had the pleasure of seeing live a couple years ago. :) I hope this song speaks to your heart and soul as much as it does mine.

    I think I have seen photos of the store in Granville, although I have never been. I have been to Columbus several times and was often in Cincinnati to visit my godparents. Trust me, the sewing machine is not as scary as it may look. I'm sure if you would start sewing, it would be an addiction that you couldn't get enough of. I don't know if you saw it or not, but I did a post recently for all those "non-sewers" who love fabric... I imagine you could put some of your beloved Amy fabric to good use.
