What's lost has been found

Tyler lost his PSP a year ago. He was out riding with Papa doing errands one Friday and when he went into a store he left it on the seat of the car. Papa didn't lock the car so we all thought it had been stolen. We searched the car high and low, top to bottom with no luck. So we took it as a lesson learned. We sold all of his games and accessories that went with it and let him purchase the much cheaper DS with his money.

Tonight Mimi lost her candy bar. She really, really needed that candy bar.

So she searched her car high and low and found this......

Hallelujah

Her candy bar - it was in her purse.

Art

Last night was the big art show for Tyler.

We walked in and the room was packed with beautiful things created by the surrounding schools students. His teacher came and was just gushing over her students and their art. She is so energetic and fun that the students can't help but catch her enthusiasm for art.

Thanks Mr. Lamb - We love you!

Everyone had to pose with the picture

First Mommy

Then Daddy

Mimi and Papa came out to see the little artist and his masterpiece - they never miss anything their precious boy does.

Peace

I have been in turmoil the last few weeks. I have been dealing with several different family issues and my biggest problem was I was trying to fix other people. Problem is - I can't fix anyone. It hit me this morning when I was at church and the words came up on the screen "You are God alone". A peace came over me like I have not felt in a long time. I don't have to fix anything because long before I even knew these issues were coming - God did. He knows exactly how they are all going to play out and I have nothing to do except trust Him. I have felt so far away from God these last few weeks and that is all on me - when I get frustrated I stop praying, stop reading - just stop. Satan creeps in and lets me think all kinds of negative things and I let him. Until today. I know that my God is bigger than lies. Bigger than egos. Bigger than finances. He is just bigger and He is mine. I know the issues are not gone but I feel so much more prepared to deal with them now. Thank you Lord for showing me that today.

It's over!

What a week.

It has been one of those never ending weeks that just completely wore. me. out.

I am glad it is over and ready for next week. Our first home study visit is Wednesday and I didn't even clean yet......if you know me I am freaking out on the inside but just too darn tired on the outside to do it. Tuesday night will be a whirlwind night - I have already warned Charlie.

I am sure I have lots of bloggy stories but for the life of me none of them seem very interesting right now.
