“What would you girls think if someone came and lived with us?” That is how I remember my parents starting their conversation with the oldest three of us girls to let us know that a baby brother or sister was on the way. That was more than 26 years ago and this weekend, my “baby” sister is moving to Denver.
Chrystal has recently passed the certification test to be a cardiac ultrasound tech and will be looking for a job here. She is also a licensed massage therapist, so hint-hint to any of my Denver-area friends that are looking for a great massage.

I am excited that we will be in the same city again and be able to share in the bond of family. Please pray for her safe travel with the moving truck, her car, her two dogs, and the help of her boyfriend.
Crazy dreams plague my sleep most nights. Some would make for quite the action movie and others fit more under the category of drama - rich with characters and depth of emotion. I often awake exhausted, having to convince myself that it was not real because of the intensity of emotions and the vivid portrayal of the events I experience through the dream.
It is sometimes easy to trace the dream back to thoughts or conversations earlier in the day that trigger a dream with certain content, but at other times, the dream seems to come out of nowhere - possibly an untapped portion of my subconscious that reveals itself in a dream.
If it is a pleasant dream, I wish I could stay in that state of semi-consciousness so that I can extend the life of the dream, spend more time with the people there, dwell a bit longer in the joy and emotion of the moment. At other times, I am more-than-ready to awaken and snap out of the dark intensity of the dream. What becomes important is the reminder that it is only a dream and, as such, should not cloud my perception of reality.
The question I pose to you on this Wake-up Wednesday is this: Is there a dream that you are letting cloud your perception of reality? One you need to let go of and give over to God?
