The season has ended...a New has begun


Well it is a official I have a liscensed driver in my home other than myself and Sam. Paul passed his driver's test yesterday. And he drove his father's truck to work yesterday. It was strange to watch my baby drive away alone. The vain thoughts and fears that come only from our own imagination swam through my mind. I had to bow my head and release him into the arms of Jesus! The only one who is our true protection!
On another note- Sammy and Joey finished up their soccer season with a bang. They made it all the way to the championship game. And lost by one point. It was the hardest thing as a mom to watch,a game full of physical contact, heart and desire by both sides. The advantage the other team was size- and that size paid off by one point. When the whistle blew to end the game- my heart broke for each one of those players who gave all they could give to win that championship for themselves, for their coach, and for their city! I had never been proudier of my sons. Sammy gave all of himself and more. It was the most incredible soccer game I had ever been too. Each team wanted to win!! My Sammy walked away with such a broken heart! But he is up today and ready to do it again- What a blessing he is to me- I would have been depressed for days!

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Traditions…

At this time of the year everyone is filled with traditions. Things they do every year  to prepare their hearts to celebrate the greatest, and truest meaning of this season- celebrating the Birth of our Savior. We are no exception.. we started this tradition last year. Our hearts were to focus ourselves completely on what we are celebrating and why we are celebrating it so every evening, we light these candles…   gather around the table to read the scripture for the night, we sing the corresponding carol/hymn, then daddy reads a story. The story normally goes with which every figure we must pull and set up for our nativity scene. So far this is what we have out: The Donkey was first- because he carried Mary to Bethlehem, then the cow- was probably in the stable, the sheep were probably brought by the Shepherds who came to see the Savior, and then the Shepherd. This scene is such a humbling scene, one that reminds us that our Lord did not arrive in a mansion, or place b...
