Lee’s Laundry

Wednesday, February 11th, 2009

Yesterday when I was taking James to Tae Kwon Do, I discovered my car had no brakes! Thank God I discovered this in the driveway! Needless to say we didn’t go anywhere. The other car–you know THE car that has given me so many headaches!–was parked in the garage and hasn’t started since Christmas. I [...]

Answered Prayer

Tuesday, February 10th, 2009

This morning when we started school, James and I prayed. I asked God for something to sell on Etsy or Ebay. I spent most of the day battling a nasty headache–a by product of my old neck injury. While I was trying to rid myself of the headache, a treasury I was in on Etsy [...]

Trials

“He does not need to transplant us into a different field, but right where we are, with just the circumstances that surround us, He makes his sun to shine and his dew to fall upon us, and transforms the very things that were before our greatest hindrances into the chiefest and most blessed means of [...]

Temptation

Monday, February 9th, 2009

I cannot tell how I am buffeted sometimes by temptation. I never knew how bad a heart I have. Yet I do know that I love God and love His work, and desire to serve him only and in all things. And I value above all else that precious Saviour in whom alone I can [...]

Conversations with James

Monday, February 9th, 2009

My dad used to host a radio show on a local radio program. They shared Gospel music and my mom always told a “True Story from Sunday School”. Kids are so funny and our family loves telling stories! I thought of Mom’s “True Stories” today when I thought about sharing these funny James stories. 1. [...]

Happy Monday

Monday, February 9th, 2009

I have 2 posts that I really need to write. The Lord has brought them to mind several times! They’re a bit “heavy duty” and I haven’t quite had time to devote to them. I don’t want to just churn them out. I’m afraid I’d say the wrong thing or not be sensitive to the [...]

New Year Goals~progress

Thursday, February 5th, 2009

So, on New Year’s Day I posted my goals for the year. I’ve been much better at getting to bed earlier. I’m not perfect at it and it’s still very easy for me to stay up too late, but I’ve been getting to bed by 12 or 12:30 much more often and many days even [...]

Some of our favorite games

Wednesday, February 4th, 2009

I made an Amazon listmania of our favorite games and thought I’d share it for my Works for Me today. James and I have been playing lots of games after school. I hope they’re building wonderful memories of his childhood! Check out my list and let me know if there are any old favorites or [...]

Thoughts

Tuesday, February 3rd, 2009

I couldn’t sleep tonight. I have been ill since Saturday. I went to bed tonight and woke up with a coughing fit and couldn’t go back to sleep. I really can’t remember a time when I woke up and couldn’t go back to sleep. I think I’m almost better actually, but it’s been a long [...]
