On my way back to my parent's house, after a quick trip to Party City (trying to get ready for Little Man's birthday party next Sunday...they didn't have what I needed), I saw this:
Yes, this guy was riding all around South Charlotte (I saw him about 10 times on Saturday) backwards on his handlebars! That is some talent! (And yes, I pulled out my camera at the stoplight to snap a pic!)
Anyway, we had a great weekend with family for my Dad's birthday...more pictures to come later this week!
(Little Man was already asleep before we started celebrating)
And the message at my home church was wonderful. Little Man sat with us through the service and did great (much to our surprise!)
The sermon was about (mis)communications...which is what a lot of us seem to have problems with in our relationships! He told a funny story about the miscommunication about the abbreviation "W.C." It means water closet (aka bathroom) in Europe...but after researching a man thought it meant "Wesley Chapel," and invited the woman to join him for singing in his "W.C."
My husband and I definitely know that we need to work on communication with each other, but we really do try. It's mainly over misinterpreting tone for us, or our lack of interest in each other's passions sometimes.
The main message of the pastor's sermon was about communicating with people you do not understand...the people you fear...the people who are different from you...the people you hate.
Jesus taught us to love our enemy, which can be a very hard thing to do, and to love those you fear! It is simple to preach, but hard to carry out. Simple, yet so important...especially today.
Something to think about....Have a great week!
Oh and I almost forgot! While I am usually pretty boring when it comes to nail polish (I like to stick to many shades of pink...and not normally venture from my comfort zone!), I am sporting my teal toes (with a pink ribbon for breast cancer awareness) for Ovarian Cancer Awareness!

Happy Monday!
