my boys hunting trip

My boys went hunting last Friday night and Saturday and had a blast!  (Thank you Stephen Greer for inviting them)  Before they left, David gave Bryant his 1st gun: Red Rider BB gun!  They practiced on our patio out back....trying to hit the garbage can....
You should have seen his face when he shot the garbage can~ priceless!  
I got the most precious phone call that night....."Mom, Mom, I killed an armadillo!!!"  You would have thought it was an 8 point deer!

Normal

What is normal?  
Have you ever thought about that?
Has the rug ever been pulled from beneath you and all you craved was "normal"?  
I've been thinking lately about 'normal'....about what God's will for our life is with 'normal'.
We are but sojourners on this earth, we are not to be too comfortable, we are Heaven Bound.....yet we crave 'normal life'? 
Normal Life to me is my family~ under one roof,  pitter patter upstairs, laughter all around me. That is what I crave more than anything....not a fancy car, not a big house, not a fabulous vacation, or even a shopping spree.  I crave my family!  
I am so thankful that we are now under one roof!  Even though not every day is sunshine in the Seago house.  We are a family and we will put one foot in front of the other and face each day as warriors for Christ.

another scare

Well, we had another scare yesterday.....David started running 103.8 fever and I rushed him to the Emergency Room.  They kept him over night and ran lots of tests.  The fear was an infection in his blood or in the wound itself from Friday's surgery.  But thankfully, both looked normal and we broke out into hives last night in the hospital....allergic reaction to a med.  Not sure which one yet, but at least is was a reaction to something and not an infection.  

We just arrived home and are sooooo thankful to be here.  Now we just need normalcy! (whatever that is.....maybe we'll find it, probably around the time #3 arrives)
