I am currently stretch as thin as I have been in a long time and in need of a vacation! Keaton is almost 7 months old and still gets up at least once most of the time twice a night which is keeping me from any rest of more than 4 hours. Addison is talking so much and spoiled me by sleeping through the night at such an early age! Esther comes over alot and helps out PTL! Mom watched them this afternoon for me to run to the grocery since it was cold and yucky outside. My plate is full with school, work, teaching sunday school, mom bible study, marriage small group, motherhood, studying, cleaning, cooking, and being a wife.... Whew! I love it all I just need to find a way to balance without crashing and burning....
I start a new job (same field just different doctor's office) in a week and I hope and pray that helps with some of the stress that I am under at my current office....
I am so blessed to have healthy kids! I keep hearing about illness and death from friends and families that we are close to... It is giving me a new appreciation for my life and the lives of those I love.
I have some great friends who are helping me study into the wee hours of the morning and a husband who has been walking this thin rope with me every step of the way!
I had a scare last week with a positive pregnancy test but my doc confirmed that I am not prego... I took another test yesterday to confirm again and it was negative THANK GOD! I would die with three kids under the age of 3!
I love them but i need a break before the next one arrives!
I am praying for healing in my family right now.... The Lord created each and everyone of us and I pray that we remember that we are His and so are they! Fearfully and Wonderfully made! Thank you Lord for not giving up on us and for graciously putting us back in place when we start to try to take control of situations that we should leave at the foot of the cross...
We are reading LOVE and RESPECT at church and doing a study that is amazing! No matter what my husband does I have NO RIGHTS to disrespect him and no matter what I do he has NO RIGHTS to not show me agopy love! We are on the same team and have to remember that when we think the other one is attacking us! GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME AND ALL THE TIME GOD IS GOOD!
pics to come soon! my camera will not upload ... i will have to see what is up with that...

Glad you are back to blogging. I check your blog everyday to see if you have posted. I'll be praying for ya, girl. Sounds like you have a very, very full plate right now. Hope to see you Thanksgiving if not before.

Sounds like you are one busy woman! BUT sounds like the Lord is still teaching you something new everyday!! I think about you a whole lot, and we definitely need to get together sometime very soon!! Give Addison & Keaton a hug & kiss from me...I've bet they've both grown leaps & bounds since the last time I've seen them! love you, friend!!
