Aggggghhhh......! And a story.

Aggghh...we got a virus! Thursday, while I was on the computer everything shut down and went crazy. We somehow got a BAD virus that took over our computer. It didn't totally take over, but did enough to make us get a new hard drive. Thank God we have an EHD and we pretty much saved everything onto that before this happened. We are functioning with two computers set up as one. So it's pretty crowded on our desk. I can't access out EHD to put a flower here for ya! Robert wants to scan it before we connect it back to the computer. Also, I need to find out how safe doing all of this digiscrapping and downloading digiscrap stuff is before I do more. If any of you know, PLEASE tell us!!
We had our first full day of sun today. It was nice to see the sun, though we stayed in most of it. We are (Robert's) cleaning out the office, getting it ready for homeschool. In doing so we found a shoe box full of great pictures!! It's always so fun to look at the "old" days. A lot were of Colleen when she was about twoish.
Here's a story for you. This evening J found a baby bird in the yard. It was old enough to fly, but wasn't. The parents were right there on the fence sqwaking and sqwaking at J to get away and to the baby bird. Watching the mother and father bird encourage (sounded more like yelling) their baby, I couldn't help but think about God. Sometimes we are the baby bird who should be able to fly but for some reason can't. God is there the whole time telling us "Come on, you can do it!" All the while keeping predators away. The birds didn't leave the baby, yet were far enough for the baby to get up and do it itself. The baby bird called out to it's parents, it knew they were there to help it and protect it, just like us and God. Needless to say the baby made it. The yard is much quieter and somehow I saw God today in those birds.
