Best Kid Quote

My husband bought a huge pile of avocados earlier this week. My daughter wandered into the kitchen and her eyes widened at the sight. She exclaimed "OH! We have lots of Broccamoli!"

Parent win!!! My kid thinks that the only purpose for avocados is for guacamole and she thinks it's really made out of broccoli.

I was totally broken hearted when my eldest informed her they were avocados. Broccamoli is so much more fun.

Best New Music

I love the new Casting Crowns album The Very Next Thing. My favorite songs are Song that the Angels Can't Sing and For All You Are. This released on Friday and I'm pretty much listening to it round the clock.

What I'm Reading

I loved this book. It's a thoughtful look at life and faith and pain and love. Here are a couple of my favorite quotes.

"Love is holy because it is like grace--the worthiness of its object is never really what matters."

“It seems to me people tend to forget that we are to love our enemies, not to satisfy some standard of righteousness but because God their Father loves them.”  

“Grace has a grand laughter in it.”  

There is a reason this book won the Pulitzer in 2005. I should have read it then.

So! What's up in your world? Post in the comments your new favorites.
