Just two dollars..

This week we are a little "financially challenged" as I told my husband. Between a dentist office visit out of town and some unexpected bills, I didn't even have two dollars to pay for "hat day" at Mr. L's school. You would get to wear a hat if you brought $1 to go towards a charity to benefit kids with cancer.  I was going to give them two dollars, one for me and one for Mr. L. I prayed to God to just help me get two dollars to give at school.

The next morning I was getting ready and reached my hand into my laundered jeans pocket. There in the pocket was $2. What funny things God does sometimes!!!

What to know...

I wrote this for a friend's baby shower today..

Some things to know….


You’ve never known love till you see that baby smile…

You’ve never seen heaven on earth to you see that baby for the first time...

Your world becomes larger and smaller at the same time as you try to protect your baby from everything in the world…

Your baby’s laugh will be more beautiful than any song you’ve ever heard…

You’ll run on adrenaline, caffeine, and love the first few years, because the Lord knows you don’t sleep…

Get down on your knees and pray, often, you can’t do it all without the help of the good Lord above…

You will have a whole new respect and empathy for the woman trying to corral her kids at the supermarket…you will be her one day…

Always remember that you are a woman and not only a mother…nurture that part of your soul…

Start each day with prayers and the Bible…it will restore your soul and prepare you for the days ahead…

Always remember that they will not be young forever, cherish each day that the Lord gives you, and love the moment of life you are in…

Have fun with your children, laugh much and often, and your home can be a haven.

“Love is patient…Love is kind” 1 Corinthians 13:4

Amazing

Sometimes I feel as though I'm on a roller coaster & no one stops it to let me off.

Anyone knows that times are getting tough with costs on everything going up & pay is not going up with it. But just when I think I'm going to throw myself on the floor & cry, the good Lord comes through.

He comes through with an unexpected gift..

He comes through with good news on a friend's surgery...

He comes through with a giggle from my Kids to remind me of the joys of this life..

He's teaching me so much, & sometimes I have to stop & breathe in order to catch it all.

This life is too short. I choose to be positive & choose joy, & choose my Lord.
