Hello My Darlings!
I've missed writing...a lot!
If you've been reading my "whining", you've noticed that I am in the throes of a particularly difficult season of my life, my spiritual walk, and parenting...(referring to the teenage boy!)
I am still employed as a Cake Decorator and as holiday season approaches, my sleep time gets shorter and shorter! Any day now we will probably go on 6-days a week! My husband will be thrilled to say the very least! I'm sure he just can't wait to have twice as many days with out me as he does now! Whew....what this will do to promote my marriage to the next level, eh?
Mike is still continuing to persevere to the end of his GED! He's almost there and what a blessing that is! He has completed all of his math and still has some LA and Science! This is a complete answer to prayer! Seeing this through has done wonders for my Sweetie! I couldn't possibly begin to write about all of them, but I can name just a few: confidence (not in self, but in God who sees us through all things), knowledge, focus, retention (as in memory), perseverance, and of course an all new prayer life! He is still contemplating continuing school to gain a Welder's Certification. I am so very pleased with his accomplishments and his dedication to completing this particular "leg" of his journey! I see God working in Mikey every day and it's a great pleasure to be able to thank God for answered prayer!
The children are all healthy and spunky as ever! Some of the 4-yr old's mischievous ways have subsided (although I believe it to be lying in wait!). She has now crossed into "I wanna do school too, Mommy!" So the knowledge seeking begins for Brenna Gail. The 7-yr old is still trudging through Phonics in an effort to learn to read! Some days are great and other days are yet wanting! It's been slow going, but she increases everyday! The teenage boy...wel...he's in a world ALL HIS OWN and we are not welcome or often invited to visit there! (not that we WANT to go into that world or anything!) I guess it's just typical teenage behavior, but it certainly has increased our prayer lives as parents! Ryan is a good child though, and he does love the Lord. For that, we are so very thankful!
Mike and I are planning our "Date" for the month of November. We had such a great time last date, that we are planning to repeat the same of tryst this time! Move and Food! I can't wait! Having days off through the week to spend with Mikey is fantastic! I just love it! We sleep in (that means past the 4:00 AM I usually wake up at), eat all our meals together and talk or watch old movies together! He's such treasure! I love him more and more everyday!
And me...well...I'm still trusting God! Enough said!
Love you all, Ten Thousand Blessings,
