This past weekend I was able to get away from my busy schedule and the life of being a mom and a wife and escape to Hershey, PA for a women's retreat with some of my favorite women in my life. These are the things I learned about this past weekend.
1. I never heard of Kim Walker,but apparently I should. I love her worship leading. I felt so close to heaven and I am in love with the songs "How He loves" and "Happy Day".
2. I learned that not all of the chocolate in Hershey is made in Hershey, PA but in Mexico. Not really fair in my book.
3. I have seen Liz Curtis Higgs books in the bookstore and have thought about purchasing many of her books but never did. Now that I have heard her speak and she is one funny lady, I am going to being her books.
4. I also realized that it is okay to not be a deep person all the time. I find life fun and love to make people laugh and I learned this past weekend that it is okay to find the humor in things.
5. I love the women that I went with and I am blessed beyond measures to have these women in my life. We stayed up till wee hours of the night talking and laughing.
6. And finally, I learned that Jesus loves me just the way I am. He accepts me just the way I am. And it is good to know because I don't need to find love in other people I have it in HIM!
The big day is coming!

Yay. And if you ever have some chocolate "Mexican style" (with a little heat or spice added in), I think you'll find it quite delightful. Not happy with what it does for the local economy but sure is another fun way to have chocolate. Which I still haven't had. Ugh.
