New Day

Good Morning All! I don't have much time to blog this AM. I am getting back into my blogging. It seems as if I take it by spells but I do read other blogs as they give me inspiration for the day!! I am still unfamiliar with this particular blogger site. But will learn soon hopefully..haahaa. My brother is getting married tomorrow!! I am in quite a hurry so that's my little snippet for the day. Have a bright and sunny Friday!!!

2010

Good Morning,All!! As we get into the year 2010,we pray that we will be able to maximize our changes..not only in digits but in our minds, bodies, and our souls. I personally think...Is it too much to ask to lose a few pounds? as I do every year. We could all grow closer to God and his word also!!
     Today We have our home visit with Danita, Maria's social worker. I can't wait for her to see little Maria as she is growing in leaps and bounds!! Last night we started the Chronicles of Narnia series. I would like to find a good "free" lapbook to do with the books. Any suggestions? I did however find one..but thought it may be a bit "easy". Our prayers are with all today as you embark on a new and exciting day!! Look out for that snow!!

Sunday

This is the day that the Lord Hath Made........

he answered prayer part 3

He answered prayer!!! So sweetly that I stand Amid the blessing of His wondrous hand, and marvel at the miracle I see The fashion that his love has wrought for me, Pray on for the impossible and dare, Upon thy banner this brave motto bear, "My father answered prayer" Part 3

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Merry Christmas!! God Bless All. Good Morning. All ready for today? Yesterday we took our presents to our family the house was freezing among other things. It affected the children more than I thought it would. Last night in there prayers they all prayed for the family and to help keep them warm. That they were sorry that the family didn't have heat ,enough food, and that he bless them with the things they need. I see a definate growth in our children. It humbled us all. Marcy and Maylon were washing dishes and Marcy,didn't want to anymore, she says, "but mommy I'm getting old!!" They are sooo funny. We drove up last night to the ELks home. THe lights are spectacular. We also drove past this house very close to us that has beautiful lights. Our plan was to drive down to buchanann to the luminary that started at 6:00 thinking lights..duhh......it was candles along the road in milk jugs. It was still pretty. Each day we thank God for "renting" us a spot on this earth. What we do with it is up to us.

Lately....and answered prayer part 2

Good Morning Family and Friends!! Merry Christmas Eve. How is everyone? Today we have a full day. We take our gifts to our adopted family, pick up a ham, drop a gift to one of my cleaning ladies. Mark has a party at work. We will go somewhere tonight for services or to see lights. I HAVE to straighten house. MEEESSSSYYY!! Yes, I am one to leave it till last minute. Oh, I need to stuff the boys pillows I put together. Which is a BIG accomplishment....As the Sewing machine and I don't get along real well. Mother helped me. :) Marcy FOUND her little Fancy Nancy album that we had put together for Christmas for her....one less thing for her. Maylon was bringing the vacuum upstairs last night and broke TWO of my glasses from grandma greats stuff. At one time!!! He just let the "nozzle" hang over the island and knocked them off. So, He donned heavy work gloves, picked up the big pieces and Mason ( who was supposed to be helping him,and didn't) vaccuumed up the rest. MAAAYYYBBBEEE that will have them think next time. who knows. God has blessed us richly and is testing us each time we have a little "mess" like this one. :) Mason bought a go-cart with his applebutter money. He is fortunate to have that job. Friday I went shopping with Megan that was a fun day. We haven't done that in a long time. We are thankful for all of our family, young and old.:) Middle aged too. hee hee. :) We got to see our Montgomery family and Hubbard Family this last weekend at our christmases. It was a very fun time. The children got along well. Clinton's baptizing was very uplifting. We got a lot out of the message that day. We enjoyed the music also. I had to work Mon. and Tues. mornings. Yesterday Kellie went with me to Sam's I had to "mooch" off of her card. As I don't have one. We also went to this awesome wharehouse sale that I didn't know was there.......it turns out they are there all the time not just through christmas. Have a Merry Christmas!!

He answered prayer!!

But not in my brief hour;

I looked to see the fruit ere yet the flower

Had shed its gale of seetness over my path!!

But I have learned that slowest blossoms yield.

The choicest fruit; and so i leave them there

Upon the boughs, assured that they will bear

In time my answered prayer
