Getting ready for School
I am feeling a lot better today. Yesterday, I woke up with a stomach virus. Thank God it's gone cuz I need to get everything ready for my daughter to start school on Tues. I do not know how this is gonna go. So far I have to go get her a lunch box and school clothes. I wasn't planning on taking the whole 6-pack but Joe has been working non-stop and it looks like me and the kids will be taking a field trip to Target. I still have to make a grocery list. To that I will now add her school lunch list. I am so new at this...I always thought it would be way easier if they were in a public school. But now I see it's costing me more money and more time. And only one of my children is going...

Elevate in 2008
I got this phrase the first week of January. Elevate means to lift up, to raise, to improve. The Lord was showing me that that's what the year will hold for me and my family. So I have been waiting and wondering in anticipation what our new beginnings will look like and be.
Can I just say that God is so good. I mean He gave us His spirit to guide us in this life. Without Him I do not know where I'd be. The voice of the Lord is so awesome. No one can take away His Word, His will...His love.
Anyways...My daughter will start the local public school next week. This is gonna be a huge change on the whole family, emotionally, physically and spiritually. And this is only the beginning. Please pray for us...

Long time No blog
Well, it's been awhile. I don't even know what to write. Mostly cuz I am very tired.
It has been a long week. Joe has been working non-stop it seems since New Year's. I must say I have enjoyed my time this week. With him coming home late at night to catch a few zzzz, I have been spending my evenings cleaning, reading and listening to some teaching online. Tonight I thought I would wait up and be here to serve him a nice hot meal since he hasn't really been eating much lately. The coffee should help with that.
I hope we make it to church on Saturday. I would also like to go to the friendship group. But I think I will shoot for church just to keep the family together. The kids are missing there daddy.
I have an appointment tomorrow morning at the school for Lia. I am nervous... I am going to read a book with my sister and a few of her friends. Should be interesting.
I posted some pics on my homeschool blog here if anyone is interested. That's where I am hoping to blog about the kids, school and such. That way I can have this one be all about me. Haha, that sounds funny.

The Mirror of His Word
Do you really love me like that? Can a love that has no limits really exist? A love that transcends all time that sees beyond the flaws and beyond just merely existing. This love, Your love is like a fairytale. Sure girls dream but when you been chasing after something that says the opposite and leaves you feeling more empty inside then deep down you know that fairy tales don't come true.
To magically be transformed into the princess, into the beauty is something that don't exist. But then every time I hear Your words they tell me that I am beautiful, that I am the princess. Your words tell me that I am the women that I, along with so many others are desperately seeking to be. Your beauty and the worlds beauty is so different. Satan has so distorted the true meaning of beauty that my perception of it is almost non existent. Help me to understand your beauty Lord, the real meaning. I do understand this...
Beauty is You and Your the Only One that I can receive my beauty from. Your the Only One that gives true beauty. The Only One that gives true love.
Therefore, fairy tales really do come true and princesses really do exist. Not as this world would have me believe but by the mirror of Your Word I am transformed into the image of Christ by His true Love and His true Beauty.

Sweet Words
This was on a card that my mom sent me:
You are my Shepherd
I will not be afraid
You make me dwell in peace
You are my light
And the Lord of my journey
Your rod and Your staff
Comfort me
So I'll sing in the valley
Shout from the mountain
Drink from the river
Dance near the fountain
Of Your everlasting life
And Your eternal love
You are my Shepherd
I will not be afraid
You make me dwell in peace
You are my light
And the Lord of my journey
Your rod and Your staff
Comfort me
So I'll sing in the valley
Shout from the mountain
Drink from the river
Dance near the fountain
Of Your everlasting life
And Your eternal love
