Indoctrination

Isn't this a cute outfit that Bubby is wearing today? I like it because it's super soft and seems warm and cozy for this drizzly dismal day. I thought Bubby would like it because of the bulldozer on it, but he wasn't so sure he wanted to put it on this morning, so I was trying to encourage him by saying, "do you want to put it on and show [Code-man]?" No, but he did want to show Logo (for some reason Logo is Bubby's favorite brother. Sometimes I wonder if it's because he learned Logo's name first. Or I suppose he could have learned Logo's name first because he likes him better). So we put on the bulldozer outfit, and went to show Logo. Logo loved it, but not because of the bulldozer or the coziness factor. Can you guess why? That's right: because "those are Michigan colors." Grandpa B, congratulations: you have thoroughly indoctrinated our children.

I am listening to Todd Agnew's "Grace Like Rain" right now. I love that song, and it is especially warm and fuzzy to listen to after what seems like days and days of non-stop rain: a very welcome reminder that God loves me and rains grace down on me to wash me clean each day.

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost but now I'm found
Was blind but now I see so clearly

Hallelujah, grace like rain falls down on me
Hallelujah, all my stains are washed away, they're washed away

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

Hallelujah, grace like rain falls down on me
Hallelujah, all my stains are washed away, are washed away

When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing Your praise
Than when we first begun

Hallelujah, grace like rain falls down on me
Hallelujah, all my stains are washed away

Hallelujah, grace like rain falls down on me
Hallelujah, all my stains are washed away, they're washed away

Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah

Hallelujah, all my stains are washed away, they're washed away
