February 22 and counting

I can not believe that we are heading into our LAST week in the month of "love". How quickly it went by- in a blink of an eye.

This week, we started a new school schedule. I spent WAY too much time being behind and was so sick of having to push the children in what needed to be done each minute and second, so the schedule is up and so was the list of all the consequences if the list was not honored. It has worked out beautiful. Yes I need a schedule if I do not have one, then NOTHING gets done. Why? Because I am lazy.(haha- not really just have to much to do)

I am so glad it is Friday though- the end of the week, no schedule tomorrow. Though we do have soccer! Joseph is in a tournament- so I will be fun to be outside all day. Watching Joey do his stuff. Paul and Sam will be working-refereeing, close by though. I love being outside, sitting in my chair with my camera in hand taking pictures of the action.

You know I wanted to share what I witnessed today. The immorality and lack of conscious. We stopped on the way home from grocery shopping at the Library. My children love the library, they love to read, and tend to need to go more then once a week. Anyway- we stopped and baby had fallen asleep so I decided to sit in the van because I was talking on the phone. While sitting there directly in front of me sat these two teenagers, a boy and girl, on this park bench. These two spent the WHOLE time kissing. If you call that kissing, it was so much more than just kissing. They truly looked like they needed to be in a private place. They knew I was there, because both of them would glance over occasionally. The young man decided to stand up in front of this girl who then preceded to try to remove his belt to expose this young man. Praise the Lord the young man to seem to have some decency. It just was a reminder for me of what my children could be doing.

Well I pray all is well in your household... We love you and may our Lord Jesus continue to show His mercy upon you.

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...
