Tomorrow is dress up day at Alina's school. All of the children are supposed to dress up as what they want to be when they grow up. Alina decided that she wants to be a police officer. We got a really cute costume together. She is going to be adorable complete with badge, sunglasses, hat, handcuffs, walkie talkie and name tag that says, "Officer Knode". Too cute.

Lent has begun! I look forward to Easter. I'm making an extra effort to get in more bible study and prayer time. Today was very nice. Just goes to show me how good life can be when I set my priorities in the right place. It also shows me, shamefully, how little effort I was putting in before. :)

Watching the Winter Olympics tonight. It amazes me what people can do. I've gotten sucked into speed skating this year. Especially the short track races. Womens' downhill was pretty cool too!

NASCAR!!!! My guy Jr. took second on Sunday!!!! Its about time. Last season was so horrible. It was good to see him trying to get back to what I know he can do! Go Jr!!! :)
