Saturday morning we played our first Tot 4 soccer game. I will admit to you that at our first practice, I was not very optimistic about our chances this season. But Saturday, when the whistle blew, my team came out to play. They were fantastic. I was really proud of them. Almost every kid got a goal.
Saturday evening I started developing sniffles, and thought it must be allergies. When I laid down my nose was constantly running, and I started to cough, so I got up and slept on the couch. I didn't sleep too well, because of the constant drainage. By the morning my throat was so sore I knew that I couldn't preach or sing (I was lined up to do both), so I had to make other plans on the fly. So thankful for my dad filling the pulpit for me. I heard he did a great job. I'll get to listen later when the sermon is uploaded on the website.
I did manage to hold myself together long enough to meet up with SRC for the baptism at the Harps house. I wouldn't have missed baptizing Tommy for anything. It was awesome. There are few things that bring the type of joy that baptizing does, and I was privileged to be part of it.
Then I headed back home and back to the couch for the rest of the day and evening. I slept much better last night, but today am still feeling under the weather. It's just a matter of time now though till my body gets back to 100%.
