Where Have I Been?

This a loaded question really. I have been enjoying being a stay at home mother AGAIN!!! :-)
Time is flying by and I can not seem to get it to SLOW DOWN!!! YIKES. Which has led me to the bended KNEES frequently lately! "The Prayers of a righteous man availith much." First I have been pleading and imploring our Lord to see me through Christ's righteousness because I sure have a LONG way to go. Answering one of the Highest callings to be replied positively to.

Kent is truly enjoying the calling on his life (and our lives as well). He is ALWAYS delving into the word - Yes John B. he is still a "walking concordance". Reading, Reading, Reading! :-) For down time it is spent with our girls, guitar and games (okay I had to do a three point illiturative so really it is BASKETBALL instead of games LOL). He makes us all feel like princesses Yes ALL of US! :-) I Love you >>>>>!!!! ;-P

Mya - life it so "stressed" for her in this season. She spreading her wings yet making some preparations for college and her last year in school not to mention her summer plans. I Love You Mishka!

Tia - is blossoming into her self and her names sake - "JOY" It is soooo good to see her return to what she has always been. She is making decisions for what she desires to be and do with her life. I Love You Teegy!

Faith - Wow life is changing so fast for her lately. She has shot up in growth, her curls are so long, and she is in the process of a metamorphosis - YIKES another new season. She is a trooper and learning lessons of LIFE. I Love You Manaithy!

Emily - She is discovering who she is! She is also leaving the age of innocence which so breaks my mothers heart. She is not so an so's daughter, sister, etc., she is EMILY HOPE who gives many others hope through her very loving way. This year has been hard, like a grueling obstacle course - I know she will survive while being refined. I Love You Emma Lemma!

Hadassah - Oh the short yet fast time of 9 weeks and turning 2 months has literally made our hearts and heads spin! For such a time as this . . . "she brings smiles to ALL of us". Right now she is a glue that has brought a new meaning to BONDING! I Love You Hadassah (or Haddy as your sista's have been calling you :-P)!

Where Have I Been? Weighing the balances of Life. Struggling with where to walk next. What is the step of FAITH necessary for me - in where it is BEST for the KINGDOM and not what I desire? Oh the heart of a mother. Oh the Love of following Christ and realizing there is so much more to do in Him. Oh the steps taken up to this point that have changed the coarse of my life to bring me to NOW. Oh Abba, Father God where have I been that I need to learn from and then to yet respond to for you. How to be and make wise choices that can and will effect the family. Where have I been that I need not ever return? Here it is - all lay ed at the Lord's feet and I'll let him Lead.

So . . . . . . . Where have you been?
