devyn had 3 games this weekend! she is all done with soccer now since she decided not to continue playing tournament games. i must admit, i am a little sad (emphasis on little) i love watching her play, and she is really good! basketball is still going so she is still keeping busy with sports. jay is super happy with her decision not to continue with soccer since that means no more coaching or evening practices for him until regular season starts up again in the fall.
i had a photo fail and didn't take any pics of her games. i thought it would be good to commemorate her last soccer game of the season by taking pictures of her playing but i forgot my camera! can you believe that?! i was talking to one of the moms at the soccer game and she asked me an interesting question; if you could do anything you had a passion for, what would it be? i honestly drew a blank- i have no idea! she explained that some people have an ability to do something well, but not necessarily have a passion for it. i immediately thought of my children who have special talents with certain things and then for no good reason they quit. then i thought of myself- passions for me come and then they go. i used to love taking photos, and now i don't. the thrill of it left when it became work for me. i was starting to get paid for something i really didn't want to do and that's disheartening. i don't know when or how i lost my passion for it, i just did. the same with scrapbooking. i did it for years and never thought i would just up and quit one day. but i did. and now? i don't think i have a passion for anything, except maybe getting my house to look the way i want it to. does pinterest count as a passion? i do love pinning! wanna see what i pinned just this morning?
guess i'm just a little obsessed...
now that the question is there in my head, my new prayer is that God will touch my heart with a passion that is worthwhile.
if you are still reading, tell me what your passion is!

Howdy, stranger! Long time no comment! I have a renewed passion for Scrapbooking. I am taking the "Twelve." class at Big Picture classes. It is very inspiring. :) And, of course, Pinterest!
