I'm Back

As you can see below.....I decided to post as many pics as I can to get caught up.  Neither of my cameras have been working correctly  so I've been backuped with photos and events.  It has been a FULL month and I guess I've been  in some sort of bloggin' funk.  Does anyone else get in that?  God has been teaching me so much through His word, through my Life Journal and Precept bible study, that I guess my mind has been so full that I haven't known exactly how to express it all.  I've also been reading this book called THE SHACK by William Young.  Wow....is all I can say about that!  I recommend it to you, but be ready to think and read nothing else for a few days!   Anyway,  I seem to feel like God is refining me in some sort of way.  Shaving off, if you may.  Don't know why, didn't ask for it, but He is trying to teach me alot and I'm trying to learn~ through relationships with boundaries, through faith with our home situation, and through Women's Ministry at Pinelake.  So with that said,  I am back and I vow to be more faithful!  Girls at David's office~~sorry for the slacking.....

The pic at the top is a picture I could not resist.  As I was running around one Saturday trying furiously to clean my house before we showed it, I stubbled upon this window on the back door.  Sweet little finger prints!  I stopped and thought, "How many times do I clean this door?" Then I thought, "One day....one day, I'm going to miss not cleaning these windows....one day, I'm going to LONG to clean little handprints off the glass!"  So I decided to not sweat the little things and treasure everyday with my little 'chickadees".  This is a challenge everyday, but I can do all things thru Christ.....   What a blessing they are in my life!

Me and Elias are looking at the pics and he is saying Grace everytime he sees MG. I am laughing at the story of the fingerprints b/c I listened to the Cinderella song and cried b/c it talked about hearing the pitter patter of little feet. I thought one day I won't hear that and I will miss it. Days raising children can be challenging, My life motto is to embrace where I am in life and take it as joy/gift from the Lord....even when Elias empties a bag of sugar in my kitchen floor....you gotta just laugh.
