It is so hard to serve when you have to first remove the mask of pride that so many of us (especially myself) wear and refusing to ask for help!

That seemed to provide the motivation to prepare (at least the first few times; I really dropped the ball this time!) If you do a Disney run, though, you need to sign up early; the registrations tend to fill up in one day.

But no, I did not have the measles. <br /><br />I actually have had another measles vaccine as an adult; when I delivered my oldest daughter, I was told my lab work showed no immunity to measles. I had been vaccinated 3 times during childhood (once by accident!), so that was surprising to me. Now, after hearing that some of the Disneyland patients had been vaccinated, it makes me wonder if the shot as an adult did any good, either.

You all looked great!<br /><br />I had no idea dogs in heat had so many weird symptoms. <br /><br />It took me a long time to realize that my asking for help was not a burden to others. People want to help, they just aren't mind readers to know that help is needed or in what capacity. I ask for help when I need it, and I make sure to let others know that asking for help benefits both the helper and the helpee. Don't know why I just felt the need to say everything you just said in your post. :)Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17209807996463889703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085311167627297994.post-13093634476756326462015-01-19T05:06:36.003-07:002015-01-19T05:06:36.003-07:00Glad to read your post and see that you are involv...Glad to read your post and see that you are involved in compassionate giving every day through your Church.

I am so glad you're up and around and feeling better!<br />The #1000Speak initiative is awesome - I'm so glad to be part of this, too!<br />I love the Star Wars costumes and hooray for finding pants at the last minute. Maybe Kohl's is a prayer vortex or something? I said a similar prayer on the morning of my sister's wedding when I had absolutely nothing to wear. Please pleas please let me find something - anything - that fits and doesn't look hideous on me. BOOM! Absolutely gorgeous blouse that I wore to the wedding (now a favorite), a beautifully soft sweater in a very unique shade of blue, and a cool green top as well. All for the price of ONE of the shirts. So maybe it's a thing if you pray for a good find in Kohl's.<br />Anyway, have a great week!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085311167627297994.post-13876415835496978182015-01-18T23:25:54.850-07:002015-01-18T23:25:54.850-07:00Betcha I'm FRIST!Betcha I'm FRIST!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
