Lately, the boys favorite movie is Finding Nemo. I love it too, so we watch it a lot. Today I have to pick S & M up from school, so I let them watch it to get us through the afternoon. ( Not to mention I went to a meat sale and had to cook off 10 lbs of beef for my sisters shower-- to make Chili) Anyway, the other day I was listening to Janet Parshall's In the Market http://www.jpamerica.com/ and they were talking about all the good things about friendship you can learn from Pixar movies. So I watched this time with that in mind.
You know, I can't watch that movie without getting teared up. Just thinking about how Marlin loves Nemo so much and would do anything to find him again- conquering all his fears to get Nemo back. It reminds me of what God did for the Israelites so many years ago (and, quite frankly, still does today for us all). He pursued them, made them his people and loved them. He didn't have any fears to conquer, but I do. There are lots of things going on in life right now and lots of things i really need to trust God to take care of. If I could just remember that my God, my Savior, is pursuing me. He longs to carry my burdens for me.
Oh, and on the potty training front- G has gone all morning without an accident. Now if I can convince him that he can poop on the potty!!
