I am so small!!!!

Wow, this has been one of those weeks of enlightenment. I have just been so encouraged by the places that the Lord is taking me in His word and all of the things that he seeks to teach me. Having said that I also know that he seeks to purify me through all this enlightenment, and that is very scary. For those of you that know me well at all, you know that I like to have control, that is my safe place. Yet, I am constantly miserable trying to control, but I just can't seem to let it go. But lately He has been appealing to my heart and calling me out of this sinful place that I choose to live my life. He seeks for me to honor Him and my husband by submitting to their authority and find peace in that place. So as I daily meditate on Proveberbs 31:10-31 and look at what it means to be a Godly wife I struggle. I struggle to drop my old heavy ways and put on the lighter loads that I was created for, not easier, just lighter. I know that his design for my life is so much greater than mine and I honestly pray that I will see the fruits of that soon. Anyways, I hope this makes sense to all you blog stalkers, its just the weight of my heart today.

Keeping my commitment!!!



These are of the boys before we went to see Santa, they really do love one another!


This week as been one of those weeks. Just when you think things are calming down after Christmas and Corban's birthday, I get hit with a week that is so hard. Corban is at a stage where he want me to engage him, no self play. I love to play with him, but I also have a five month old to manage and laundry, dinner and life. If anyone has suggestions on helping me foster self play I would greatly appreciate it. Anyways, Corban is so busy talking to me all day long and Cohen is almost sitting up. We are going to have a cars movie night with Corban tonight, and I am really looking forward to it.

Back to blogging...

I am back, and I promise to post once a week! Yes I know this is a lofty goal, but it is new years resolution. I want to be able to get to the end of the year and see how far we have come as a family, and this is my great documentation of that journey. So I am back, and you will see us here every week w/something!
