well.....

Well- we have been through it again- a flood- yep pipe broke upstairs and we have been displaced from our home until right before Christmas-

if it not been for the love of friends- well... family Marcus and I would be going crazy-  ok well I would be anyway-

In the course of this first 3 weeks- I have learned to ask for more support and prayer then ever- for those of  you who know me well that is a step- I am a person - stubborn yep- independent yep- I can do it all yep. realizing its ok to ask for support - we all need it at times.

Marcus is learning its not all about him and he needs to share. we are learning as we go through this progress - blessed to have the people in our lives that we do- not sure where we would be without them right now.

How many of you can say you will open up your home to a single mom and her loving and challenging teenager? for a couple of months? I know 2 - in which I am thankful-

God is truly good- He is taking care of us and meeting our needs-

Trusting in Him- through it all- thank you Lord for your words-

At Thrive I was praying and a lady came up to me and said God has placed in my heart as I prayed to tell you I'll go. As I have prayed today this verse came up. Most versions begin with Ill go... how fitting the mountains translate into the rising waves. He levels the mountains or waves or floods in our lives he is there to go ahead and make the way

Welcome to 8th grade and craziness

Ok well we are surviving 8th grade barely - wow i did not think 8th grade would be this difficult- but I am learning and parenting is changing this year- i am having to lay down the law and at times it affects me negatively as the privileges he gets I enjoy so much watching him play.. Marcus is learning that this last year is tough and he has to study a little bit differently and a little bit harder. Its a change for both of us.

We are doing soccer again with Upwards- love this group of people - amazing - the love of the coaches is awesome.

 


some changes ahead for us- all good- can not wait to see what all God has for us-
