We are home…

the trip went so fast. The week before we left seemed to drag because of the anticipation we all had in going to Missouri. We arrived there safe with a beautiful sunset. It was such a smooth drive, and so easy. Honor was truly shocked and surprised to see us.   IMG_1028

The weekend was NO FUN- there were way to many people there, kids being loud, TV’s going, my brother being unkind, but I was happy to see my sister. It is hard to be so far away and not be able to participate in her life.

Once the weekend ended peace was restored, and normalcy returned to my sister’s home.  We hung out, ran around together, and just enjoyed each other’s company.

Friday came in a flash- the drive home WAS LONG!IMG_1163 ugh- I decided to try a different way home- and my Navigator- Paul fell a sleep on me, so I was driving blind.  IMG_1211 After 14 hours of driving we made it home and was I happy to see my beloved. It was hard to be away from him. The peace he brings the family, and guidance he brings to each of us is not matched nor found anywhere else!

Now we are trying to get back to real life! Starting our curriculum and bring a new focus to our lives!

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...
