Jenny Philips and Scuba Diving?

I was rummaging through some of my in-laws music here at the house, in hopes of finding something fun to learn, and I came across this music by Jenny Phillips. I've heard some of her songs before and thought they were so good. I especially love the words she uses in this song...

Every Breath

His hands are catching your tears
And even without any words He hears
You feel so far, but He's right where you are and He knows
Every Breath, every pain
He knows your heart and He knows your name
The giver of life, the light in your soul
Oh come home, come rest, let Him bless
Your every breath
Silence your voice and be still
And even without any words you will feel
You think you're far, but He lives in your heart and He knows
Every breath, every pain
He knows your heart and He knows your name
The giver of life, the light in your soul
Oh come home, come rest, let him bless
Your every breath
There's nowhere you can go
That He hasn't been below
Every breath, every pain
He knows your heart and He knows your name
The giver of life, the light in your soul
Oh come home, come rest, let Him bless
Your every breath

I was laying by emyri the other night singing this song to her as she was falling asleep and it hit me just how much I wanted her to know that the things in that song were true for her, that He lives in her heart, knows her name, is so close, and loves her with all that He is. I hope that if Chad and I don't get anything else right when it comes to parenting our kids that at least we will leave them with a sure knowledge, nothing doubting, that they are Gods children and He loves them perfectly and He is right there no matter what.


Anyway, things have been going good. I worked at the Red Baron yesterday, the drive in restaraunt that kel wrote about in her blog earlier. I didn't spill anybody's drinks down the side of there car, or misinterpret any foriegner's order (*see kel's blog), but I did flip some guys change up in his face and all over the ground (must have been an arm spasm or something), and I got attacked by a giant killer moth, seriously this thing was as big as a well fed humming bird not joke. It came out of nowhere, rearing it's ugly head and flapping into the window that I was trying to grap someone's order out of ( I work outside as a car hop). It was seriously wigging me out and I'm sure all of the people sitting in their cars were enjoying the free entertainment as I was trying to dodge the hairy little beast. Fortunately my boss came to my rescue with a huge fly swatter. We were just hoping that no giant hairy moth rights activists were outside watching: ) My boss said that those kinds of moths can actually sting you...who'd a thunk. I'm just glad it's dead.


Well we're headed out to yet another family reunion tomorrow in Heber City. It's at this cool place with a swimming pool and lot's of fun stuff to do so we're pretty excited about it. Chad's even gets to go scuba diving there. He just got certified this last semester. I've known Chad for how long (long time) and I never ever knew he was interested in scuba diving at all, but he heard about this class on campus where you could get certified and it was all he could talk about. It was like this long lost dreams suddenly surfaced and seriously he was like a little boy at Christmas time. It cost us a little bit, and when I say little bit I mean quite a bit, for him to take the class and get certified but it's been worth it seeing how excited he is about it. Really though, if you brought up the subject he could talk you ear off, so it's good: ) Now he wants me to get certified, but even though I'd like to think I'd be brave and it wouldn't affect me much, I'm really not sure how I'd do that far under water breathing through a mask. I don't know if I'd freak out or if I'd be fine. Maybe we'll see someday....who knows. Anyway life is great and emyri is cute (just thought I'd throw that in there). I better go check and see if she's up from her nap. love you all-
-peace-
