The Best Gift I Ever Got!

Yesterday was my last day at our group Bible Study before I move next week. I knew that the tears would come I just wasn't expecting so many. My sweet friends had all chosen specific areas of my life to pray for and that was wonderful. But, the best gift of all was the dishes. Not the dishes themselves but what was on them. They all helped me add to my collection of fiesta ware while filling up my heart at the same time. Each person had taken a permanent marker and wrote something special and a Bible verse on the bottom. I couldn't read them all until I got home because it was so emotional. However, the only problem with that is the fact that now I don't want to use any of these dishes! I have not been able to stop thinking about how blessed I am to have them as friends. Thank you God!

Man My Kid Can Snore

I really had high hopes of taking a nap today. I have been woken up by him the last two mornings at 6 o'clock. His normal wake up time is seven and as lame as it sounds even that feels early. So, my plans were foiled by my 3 year old that snores like a lumberjack. His ENT doctor suggested we remove his tonsills and adenoids to help with this problem along with a myriad of other problems he has had with his ears. My anxiety kicked into high gear with the thought of putting him asleep for surgery. I am still not ok with it and I never will be but I know he needs the surgery so we are moving forward. His surgery is scheduled for Feb. 4th. Please pray that everything goes well. I also hope that he is not too disapointed after the surgery..he says he wants to snore forever like his Granny the other lumberjack in the family!

This is my story, this is my song..

I just love that old hymn. But anyway, This is my first blog post and I am having a little anxiety about it. I love blogs and I read others everyday but now what if someone reads mine? It's quite a bit to think about. Plus I have no idea what I am doing so that doesn't help. But my good friend Angie has a blog and she encouraged me to start my own. However, she also encouraged me to join facebook and now I am addicted...thanks. So here it goes. I have pretty much lived in the same area my whole 30 some odd years. I love where I live and everything about it. It's a town that has big city conveniences yet has a small town feel. But we are moving and this is where all the fun begins. I am moving to a small town in the mountains because of my husbands job..there I said it so it must be true. We will be moving in the next couple of weeks. This blog will be my outlet. I don't really know anyone where we are moving hence the anxiety. I will miss my family, friends, church, real restaurants and Target. Oh how I will miss thee Target. So this is my story..maybe at the end of this God will show me my song.
