B is for beer of choice: I like it OK, don't have a favorite - just not dark.
C is for what you can't wait for right now: Cousins - Brad and Debbie and their two kids - Bryson and Abby - are coming for a visit!!! (Catch that - their kids names are Bryson and Abby)

J is for favorite juice: Don't drink much juice but love lemonade
K is for whose butt you'd like to kick: I'm going to copy Valerie. I'd like to kick my own as well and have much more thigh than she! You can see by my future answers that I'm not as dedicated at Valerie to reach that goal.

To Be Known

I think one of the strongest needs any person has is to be known. We all want to feel as if someone knows us and still loves us. Being the youngest of 7 children, I had to find a way to "be known" in all that chaos. I chose talking.
Some of you are currently nodding your heads in agreement - stop that! If I didn't get someone's attention, I could have been missed! I have always talked alot and truthfully, would like to talk less! If Jim reads this, which he does, he might disagree, but I talk a lot less than I used to!
I think I forget sometimes that my life now is not like my life as a child. I don't have to fight for attention; and besides, I am known and loved!
I am a daughter of God! The creator of the universe knows my name! He knew me before I was even formed in my mother's womb and had me in mind when making a way for salvation. To comprehend this is just too much for me! He knows the number of hairs on my head and longs to spend time with me. He saw me everytime I cried. He rejoices with me when I have little victories in my life. What did I ever do to deserve such devotion?!
Don't ever forget - He knows your name. He sees each tear that falls and hears you when you call!
