We took all their things from the hotel to their dorm room.  We began to unpack.  Stopped for a coffee break at The Drowsy Poet.  It is a coffee shop right down from the college.  Addie's sweet friend, Brooke, works here.  She is just adorable and I am so glad Addie has her as a friend!




We then had lunch at Sushi Masa.  All you can eat - so good!






Then we had to do a shopping haul.  Wal-Mart first.







Then more at Target.

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."  Psalm 27
