If you were to ask me what one of my favorite shows was when I was a kid, I would say, without hesitation, Blue's Clues. That show was BRILLIANT. I loved it.
You know the part where Steve gets mail and sings the "We've Just Got a Letter Song"? Well, I do. And I love that song. So, today, when I got a fantastic letter from my funtastic friend, Lydia Heulskamp, I knew that this would be how I would blog about it. Please enjoy the short video I've made below:
I admit, I'm sitting alone in my bedroom as I write this post, because it took me a few takes to finally get a video I liked enough to share with the world. If you are a close friend of mine, and would enjoy the opportunity to laugh both at me and with me, let me know, and we can watch all of the videos together. :)
Silliness aside, when my dad handed me this envelope with a page long letter from Lydia inside, I was so happy! Letters are such a lost art, and let me tell you, it needs to be found! Reading the actual handwriting of a friend, and not what Microsoft Word has to offer, is so amazing. I could literally (ok, not literally) hear Lydia's voice through the letter; hearing about how good God is and how much she is loving her summer in Colorado made my day brighter.
So, Lord, thank you. Thank you for Lydia. Thank you for her letter. And thank you for Steve and his song that I could enjoy today, since that's something I've always wanted to do. :)
Brilliant!! :]
