These lyrics really touch my heart.
"I Refuse" by Josh Wilson
Sometimes I, I just want to close my eyes
And act like everyone's alright
When I know they're not
This world needs God, but it's easier to stand and watch
I could pray a prayer and just move on
Like nothing's wrong
But I Refuse
I don't want to live like I don't care
I don't want to say another empty prayer
Oh, I refuse to sit around and wait for someone else
To do what God has called me to do myself
I could choose not to move
But I refuse
I can hear the least of these, crying out so desperately
And I know we are the hands and feet of You, oh God
So if You say move, it's time for me to follow through
And do what I was made to do
And show them who You are
I don't want to live like I don't care
I don't want to say another empty prayer
Oh, I refuse to sit around and wait for someone else
To do what God has called me to do myself
I could choose not to move
But I refuse
I refuse to stand and watch the weary and lost cry out for help
I refuse to turn my back and try and act like all is well
I refuse to stay unchanged, to wait another day to die to myself
I refuse to make one more excuse
I don't want to live like I don't care
I don't want to say another empty prayer
Oh, I refuse to sit around and wait for someone else
To do what God has called me to do myself
I could choose not to move
But I refuse

Miss Priss
My mom bought Avery the cutest little rocking chair at an antique store downtown.
I remember when she was scared of those azaleas!This is an outfit GG made her- cute, huh?
Where is Avery? There she is!
Ooh, ooh, ooh- kid's size shelves with so many books for me to pull off of them! We were at the book store in downtown Vicksburg.
I think I'll sit and read for half a second- Olivia it is! I always laugh when I watch that show with her because I have a feeling Avery and Olivia will have a lot in common as she gets a bit older!
She finally let Mommy paint her tiny toes!
At our house, we really know how to play...in the toy box is the place to be!
A high school buddy of mine, Kevin, aka "Uncle Kevin," sent Avery a Sesame Street DVD in the mail. It was so funny seeing her watch Big Bird like I used to watch when I was little! Kevin is hilarious, and so sweet...he has always checked on Avery.
