life is "Normal"

Sam and Paul returned-They been home about a week now. School has started, soccer practice has started, so life is some what "normal" Whatever normal is... Sam is ready to move to Nicaragua. He has come home with a totally different perspective on life. Realizing how much of a need there is out there, and how we "Americans" are privileged people. That we live a life of abundance, in all things from our homes, to the things we have and how it is not needed. He realizes how you can live on the bare minimum and be happy!! Well it is official, Melissa and I have started our photography business. Right now it is in the development stage. (meaning, brochures,websites, business cards) You know all the fun stuff that happens when you start a business. Here are some photos that Melissa took of me for our website this a fun collage- Thought I would share it with you...Let me know what you think... soon I will share the website!

Samuel and Paul left ....

last week and i have been meaning to get on here and share some of my thoughts but my days have just been full of trying to manage the house alone and at night I am just so exhausted that I do not feel like getting on the computer for anything. I stay busy trying to exhaust myself during the day in hopes that at night I will actually sleep but sleep has been a limited thing for me. It is amazing how the Lord actually makes you one when you are married, because when that other person is gone, sleep becomes impossible, and trust me I do not have problems sleeping normally when he is here. Samuel and Paul- well communication has been very limited since but the few times we have spoken, Sam has shared of the desperation of the people of Nicaragua. How the government of Spain control all the utilities so they play games with the people to show them who is still in control, since Nicaragua chose to seperate themselves from Spain. The jobs are so scarce their leaving it impossible for the men
