Celine Dion is in our car

We were driving up to mom and dads for Thanksgiving when it all started. An hour and a half drive can cause crazy fun to happen.

Scott says," Hey Cambria sing that new Celine Dion song , Taking Chances."  She proceeds to put her earpiece in her ear from the i-pod and start singing. She has great pitch. I'm a bit envious.  Then Marissa was next. Her voice is so sweet and I feel tears come to my eyes. The family was begging me to join in but I adamantly refused. Scott says proudly, "I'll sing it!"

Hearing  Scott, or any man,  belt out Celine's song is really pretty scary. Because the notes are so high Scott was forced to scream them to hit them and even then I don't think you could say he was reaching them. The girls were laughing hard by now and I was merely covering my ears to survive.

Somehow after hearing Scott's version it didn't seem like such a bad idea to give it a try so, you guessed it, I sang.  I am no Celine Dion. Never have been, never will be and there is actual proof of that now. After I got done with my rendition Scott revealed the taped version of me singing on his video.  He secretly recorded me while I was concentrating on hitting the notes! Ugh!
Well of course he did. I really wouldn't expect any less from him. What was I thinking? I laughed. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted, pretending I was Celine, that is.

Life is hard

One of my best friends from college, Sheri, called me this week. It wasn't good news. She has breast cancer.  I am sad. I am hopeful. This is no time for fear. This is the time for faith. I am standing in faith for Sheri believing in a big Jesus who will heal my friend.  Will you stand in faith with me and send out a prayer for Sheri? I love her a lot and so does Jesus! I am so glad we have Him to turn to especially in times like these!

Monday

It's Monday again? Darn! Well at least this one was a sunny one! Marissa woke up with a chest cold and that can't be good so off to the doctor we went. I think we caught it in time - no pneumonia!
She was tired. I was tired. A good day for a nap! Not such a bad Monday after all!
