Time and Change....



Wow.. It has been for ever since I have been on here! Time Gets away soooo fast!!!!! Where does time go???? I have so many pictures and things that I need to post of the fun summer we have had.. So I hope I can get them up soon.. But this has been our summer in a nut shell.. I am working 3 days a week at L's preschool. I have been taking A to swim lessons and she has also had to get some time in with a little friend from school.. Kids keep you busy, but on the joy I have of watching my kids grow and change in the fast time that they do..

We had a BIG break through with my little "L" and can I say BIG one more time... He is using the potty now... he was 3 in April and would not talk about it or have nothing to do with it! When I would ask him about doing it, he would say when I am 4 or some day's it would be when I am 21,,,Really... Be he is so strong willed and set in his ways that I was starting to believe him... But then on day he seen that light.. And has done wonderful with going to the potty!!!! He also has learned how to pray out loud.. And oh the joy that brings to my soul!! He is proud to pray when he is ask...

As far as "A" goes. she is growing up to fast! She is still full of live and is going in the 2nd grade.. wow... It breaks my heart to see them grow..She has loved swimming this summer.. Ever chance she gets she is in the pool or any body of water,,,the Lake (YUCK) the OCEAN (DOUBLE YUCK) I do not like to swim where you can not see what is under you feet.... I see her growing into a beautiful young child.. And I pray daily that she will always walk close to the Lord.. At night when I pray with her I pray that she always puts the Lord 1st in her life.. One night after we were done she said.. "Mom, I am saved.. and you always pray that I put the Lord 1st in my life.. She said what do you mean? " Do you mean that you always want me to stay close to him" YES!! that is what I mean.. He is so good.. I hope she gets that at an early age so that she can learn to depend on him in all parts of her life!!!

And then there is CHANGE I don't know what the Lord is doing in my life.. Do you ever feel that way? You feel that you are going through some changes but you can not put your finger on them. Not saying it is a bad thing... I get to a point to where i am ready to see what the Lord is doing in my life but then he reminds me to just BE STILL!!! Wow how hard is that sometimes...
I was reminded this year at the beach how powerful and wonderful the Lord is.. As I was sitting there on the beach.. I was just amazed to look and know that he made it all. He made the water and the sand and animals and has a reason for them all. And then I was reminded that he made Me.... And he Loves me soo much.. Even when I am unworthy of being Loved he still loves me....

The Lord is good,
