Good-bye February



This smile is the smile of a Christian just after being baptised. Imagine how much her insides are glowing. Now imagine how big God is smiling back at her.

Happy Valentines Day

Where is this month going? Right along with my time, just a zipping by. I've found that, although I love my new job, it's taking a toll on me and my time. My lack of organization and control is showing through and shining brightly. And I know that God is in total control, yet I still worry. For instance, that mold line that's growing on my shower wall, I know it's there, I see it, and I don't take the time to scrub it away. I did squirt some Soft Scrub with bleach on it last night thusly ending it's spread but surely not it's life. Am certain that has now hardened and will be difficult to clean off. I'll call it caulking. And then there's the rest of the house; mind you I'm not married to a man that complains about the house. He too is busy and knows it will get finished when we can get to it. The never ending duties, laundry, dishes, we've both learned to overlook the accumulation. Since we've moved I am competely off my Fly Lady cleaning list. I need to revisit her. The list has been made but needs to be organized. I'm getting there. We've eaten out more this month that I did my entire childhood, or so it seems. And I like to cook for my family; I'm just tired and unmotivated. Until today, today I bought groceries and started cooking. Julian helped and I enjoyed that. Monday is a day off so I am continuing my quest to get organized.

OK, the venting is over with...

Jessica, sleepover party last night that included 6 girls from her top ten list. All from church which makes them on my top 10 list also.
Chace is signed up for baseball and will start Monday. He's nervous and excited.
Julian, my sweet Julian, has two playdates tomorrow...one to practice her dance routine with Anna Grace for the talent show and the second at Emily's house for a sleepover. Afterall, Emily's brother, Jacob, will be sleeping at our house that night.
William and I are staying busy with work and home, see above, and everyone is healthy. We've enjoyed some much needed rain and some cooler weather too. With the windows open several nights we've been serenaded by various neighborhood birds. Nice and then enough already sometimes.

OK so that's us, in a nutshell, from a nuthouse, where we're all nuts.
