Letting Go

What things were gain to me, these I have counted loss for Christ. - Philippians 3:7

I really liked this today from a booklet William's co-worker gave him: A spiritual parallel to our reluctance to let go of clutter in our homes may be our inability to clear our hearts of the attitudes that weigh us down.

I tend to be a Pack Rat in this aspect...

Rikki Tikki Tavi

We are in love with our new addition to the Ybarra family! I am personally thrilled with having another female in our house besides me. We are calling her "Rikki" for short, but named her after the movie Rikki Tikki Tavi. She was a surprise gift from Weeyum for me and Zach. Zach and I have been asking him for a Ferret for a while now. The dogs enjoy her, but only under our supervision. The boxers have a natural instinct to jab and chase her so we have to keep a close eye on them. She is so cute, sweet, and playful. I have already given her a bath because she is such a stinker :-) Sorry the pictures aren't better, but she wiggles around a lot...
