Two weeks ago, Lee lost his job due to lack of work. They said, “We’ll call you back in a few weeks if we have more work.”
We haven’t heard a word yet.
Lee doesn’t qualify for unemployment, because he hadn’t earned enough in previous quarters.
So many times, over the past days, I’ve prayed, “Oh, Lord, what [...]
When James got to his “J” page in Cursive Success, one of the words on the page was jail.
I told him to just cross it out. He got a huge smile and did just that.
In small ways, we are reclaiming the power jail held over our lives.
The story’s not over yet. It’s hard to know [...]
Lee went to the job center today to see what he could apply for. He said it’s pretty slim pickin’s out there. His record makes finding a job difficult and while we know it’s his own fault, it sure makes job hunting very discouraging.
He’s in a good mood though. For now it feels like a [...]
“When Dad comes home….” is a popular topic of conversation around here.
I look back at the times when I said, “It will be one more winter, one more spring, one more birthday, and then Daddy should be home.”
I’m thankful that my child isn’t messed up! That’s been one of my huge prayers. “Dear Lord, please [...]
A couple more of my sweet little nephew and a couple of the kitties.
This crazy cat loves to be by the sink or in the tub. She licks up the little drips or sits and watches whomever is in the bathroom!
And the baby!
When I spoke with Lee tonight, he said he ran into a couple of his nephews today.
He was talking about what’s going on in our life right now.
He said they all went to a friend’s house and sat down and his nephews prayed for him.
I found that incredibly encouraging and heartwarming.
What a blessing to have [...]
I’ve waited to post this for years. The event that triggered my thoughts about it happened at least 4 years ago. I’ve thought about posting it many times and never quite knew how to pull it together.
Tonight, I just decided to write it and share from my heart.
Several years ago, I heard about a horrible [...]
I haven’t had time to edit my nephew’s entire photo shoot yet. I got two done this afternoon.
I may share a few more of my favorites later when I have time to edit them.
We enjoyed cuddling him and helping my sister in law. I loved seeing my “baby” brother being a daddy. Very sweet!!
Here is [...]
James and I are off to meet the baby! I hope to have some wonderful photos to share with you next week.
I’m sure I will because he’s one of the cutest babies that ever lived!
Please pray for us to have safe traveling and that Lee will feel better. He’s still quite ill and has missed [...]
Moms love talking about their kiddos right? So, I thought I’d share what’s up with James lately.
He’s very excited about meeting his new cousin. He said, “Do you think Kathryn will let me hold him?” I said of course she will! He wants me to skip work (youth choir) and go visit them for a [...]
