Last few days in review…

Well the last few days have been busy since my sister has arrived.

 IMG_1313Of course my sister is a ball full of energy and fun so Thursday we spent hanging out, and catching up and she taught me how to wax my own eyebrows, and my daughters eyes.IMG_1297 IMG_1293 IMG_1294

Amazingly the day went quickly.

Friday we went shopping for the weekend. With all the places we stopped, it literally  took us all day. 

 

On Saturday, my sister spent the day cooking, she made fresh sushi, sweet and sour chicken and fried rice, all in Celebration for Paul’s Graduation.  We had no intention of doing anything graduation due to many things, but one being we are taking a big trip to PA in June. Everything extra is going towards that trip. My sister would not have it that way, so with the heart the size of Texas, she worked all day to make the day a GREAT success.

Sunday was full of another celebration.. Honor’s 12th Birthday. She took the children to black light miniature golf, while my beloved took me out to dinner for Valentine’s day. We met back in the evening to have ice cream cake and open presents for Honor.

Monday- we spent the day playing games- we were going to go to the zoo, but it was way too cold and windy out there.

 

As you can see my days have been full. I pray you have had some blessed days.

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...

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...
