Where have I been?

Things have been busy over here.

We have taken our house off the market and continue to pray and wait on the Lord for His timing. We know what He is leading us towards, we just don't know WHEN He will make it happen.

All three of the girls have croup. I have never dealt with this before. Thankfully a friend of mine has three sons who constantly had croup growing up. She called me back and gave me some great natrual remedies to try.

I still am not 100% feeling better. Long story there.

A falling out with the in-laws. This has been so painful and a long time coming. It is so sad that there is such feelings between Christians. I fear that things will never be resolved and that we won't be a part of their lives anymore. The Lord knows the siutation, so if you feel led, please pray.

The house has also fallen into disarry with me being sick. The girls do their best to help, but there are still things that I have not taught them how to do yet, that they can't help with. I am so thankful for their help because they really do a lot: wash dishes and load dishwasher, wipe table, set table, sweep the floor, clean their play area and bedrooms, make their beds. They can take the clothes out of the washer and put them in the dryer (SO THANKFUL FOR A FRONT LOADING WASHER/DRYER!!) and they can take clothes out of the dryer . They can somewhat fold clothes and put them in their drawers (although most of that falls on the 5yr old). But they do tend to become somewhat lazy when Momma is not right there along side of them helping too. And Brian can only do so much (he has a full time job which he works from 7AM-6PM when he gets off, makes dinner, feeds all of us, puts the girls to bed, cleans up a little, and then goes back to work till 9PM when he crashes on the bed and sleeps). But I am so grateful and thankful for all he does. I cannot imagine the health hazzard this place would be without him doing what he does!

Anyways, just popping up here to say that I am still around and to thank those of you who emailed me personally to see how I was. I also need to publically thank my dear friend Brenda (you can read her WONDERFULLY inspiring blog - link on the left for Titus2Mentoring) who has been such an example to me during this time. If anyone who reads this blog feels led, please do pray for her.
