Just a Little Note

  This is a beautiful Sunday. Church was great. God was there and in the house today. Got really exciting news about a friend pregnant but with twice the blessings. Congrats friend!! :-)……My house is noisy today. Courtney has decided to not nap and the boys just seem cranky. Did the time change really affect us that bad? Well I guess it is okay. Think positive press on and go. I think I am ready for this day to end! Not really a bad day but a rough day. So Friday we went to Northwest Trek for the first time. We had a blast. It was fun and to see nature at its best is amazing. We had homegroup Friday night where it finally hit me I was sooooo tired. People I mean tired so tired while we were praying I was trying to fall asleep. That is bad but I came home and went to bed and slept 11 hrs…woot woot!!!! So then Saturday we had a long soccer day. However Scorpions are still number 1 and now 9 and 0……two games left.  Well there is my LONG weekend in a very small nutshell.

       Onto greater things not sure what they are yet but we will see. I was thinking about Brandon and I got a letter from him. He is doing so well. He has decided he doesn't like Bible class so I think I am going to investigate that a little bit more and find out why. I am praying God will open Brandon’s eyes and heart to His word. I think of Isaiah 43:1-3 and change it to pray over Brandon………Do not fear, for I have redeemed you Brandon; I have called you by name, you are mine. When you pass through waters, I will be with you: and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you: when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you………………I want him to know these things I want him to remember Zechariah 8:16-17 These are the things you shall do: Speak the truth to one another, render in your gates judgments that are true and make for peace, do not devise evil in your hearts against one another, and love no false oath; for these are all things I hate, says the Lord…………and then I am reminded of God’s promise to us and I have hope in Him for my child as Psalm 138:7 says Though I walk in the midst of trouble, You will revive me; You will stretch out Your hand against the wrath of my enemies And Your right hand will save me……..Gives me much peace to know. So there is my part on Brandon.

  I give so much everyday to be a Mom a wife and so much more. Sometimes you know its just no that easy. Sometimes locking yourself in a bedroom or going far away seems like the answer for it all. I kinda have to take a step back and pray or call a friend. I have to remember that it is okay to have these feelings of escape because I am human. I am only one person and can only do so much………Be merciful to me, O God, be merciful to me, for in you my soul takes refuge; in the shadow of your wings I will take refuge, until the destroying storms pass by. I cry to God Most High, to God who fulfills his purpose for me. He will send from Heaven and save me, he will put to shame those who trample on me. God will send forth his steadfast love and his faithfulness. Psalm 57:1-3……..I love my God and love knowing my God loves me! Last thing for me is finding the time to have quiet time. Usually is about the time I want to fall into bed and go to sleep. I have to remember that I need growth and I am a woman of God and I need him. So I remember this is what He wants from me……. “Then you will call my name. You will come to me and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will search for me with all your heart, you will find me! I will let you find me,” says the Lord…… Jeremiah 29: 12-14…..Happy Sunday friends enjoy and have a blessed week

He Swallowed a What??

Image
Not sure where to begin. Alright it is noon and Courtney is getting ready to take a nap and Cameron had just got in trouble so he needed to go to my room and take a rest. Court just went to bed and Cam is in my room. I sit down at the dining room table to finish some paperwork. All the sudden Cameron comes running down the hall screaming holding his throat, “I swallowed it, I swallowed it.” I said “Cameron what did you swallow?” Cameron, “ I don’t know it was silver metal, I don’t know what it is?” I am at this point going what on earth now. I can not fathom so we keep talking he gets a drink of water and coughs and says I really did I swallowed it. At this point the older boys know what he swallowed. So when we all came to the conclusion, we did in fact decide it was a battery. I try to call his doctors office but they had just left for lunch. I called poison control not sure what prompted that as I have never called them ever. The lady was wonderful on the phone and told me that if i...

I Have Missed.......

Well today was a good day. It was oh so HOT……I love it….okay well I love it as long as I can come in the house and cool off from time to time. Spent most of the day outside doing absolutely nothing except being kissed by the beautiful SUN!! My niece came over with my Great Nephew (thanks!) and we had a wonderful visit….Have I mentioned how precious he is? Cameron went to his first night at Mega Sports VBS and that was exciting for him. Tyler is camping at Dash Point with a friend. As for me and Courtney we went to Preston to go to the kids bounce place for a birthday party for Tucker. So while I was there I got to see the all the little ones I watch during the school year. Believe it or not I have missed that so much. As hard as it is to devote a day to kids all day with in reality no break can be difficult at times. Some days I was absolutely exhausted and some days I felt great. Some days were filled with happiness all day and some days I was so stressed I wanted to be done. No matte...

Safe Travel......To and From!

Travels……..So much to say and don’t know where to begin. Started my venture and decided 10 min. into the ride I was tired. I really dislike when that happens. I prayed immediately for safe travels……Thank you for those that took the time out to pray!! Travels were safe. Loud music and window down….dancing…..just to stay awake and make the run smooth. Let me first off start with I got some gas. Then I get into Puyallup and coffee is calling my name but decided hey I can wait. So what do you know……Starbucks on every corner and I wait to find the next one and NOTHING……….Keep driving, NOTHING…….Heavens to Pete I think by now I am going to die. So I am driving staying very content with the driver in front of me. A truck pulls out in front of him and he had no choice but to pass at that moment. So I got stuck behind this truck that is driving 35-40 in a 55 I finally get in a safe place to pass so I do. Of course he speeds up…..but its all good……I may like to drive fast but I do not like to pa...
