Blessings and More!

I have been feeling the love lately, from the Lord above.  He has helped me so very much in the last couple of weeks with some things I have been stressing over personally.  Nothing earth shattering or anything, I can't put my finger on it exactly.  The good news is all is almost back to normal in my upbeat optimistic mind and heart.

Where do I start? 

The Blessings.......

Luke has been having some trouble since Ashlyn joined big school. He does not want to listen, and him and his sister seem to not want to be apart these days!! They have to be fighting or playing so the noise is constant. Some good and some not so good. Love to hear the laughing does my sole good. I think we have finally got them a little calmed down from the excitement of being at school together. :-)



Ashlyn has started picking her forehead again, and I know I keep saying it does not bother me....it did. I almost broke down one night and started praying, and then I stopped myself. How selfish am I? Praying for a scar that in no time at all is going to be a distant memory. My concern was that it was hurting her or her self esteem, but I should know. She is resilient and we will make sure she knows that she is perfect the way God made her. Enough said about that. I have made peace with it, and am thankful for my healthy, perfect family.

We got our new Golf Cart, which is something I have wanted for some time. Last night the air was cool and we took it out at 9 o'clock pushing the kids bed time back and went for a nice long ride. It is calming and relaxing. Kind of like when you are at the beach and take a deep breath and know you have a couple of hours at least to relax. So excited that we were able to get this.

Went to get my oil changed, and they found a crack in my Water Pump. I don't know what a Water Pump does but I kind of think you don't want it to break. The guy said it would damage the motor if it went out completely. He gave me the initial est. of $560.00 yikes! After panicking for a while I remember that my car is still under warranty so it is only going to cost like $120.00 for some additional part that is needed, and the deductible. Thanks to a miracle, and blessing for the Lord Above.

I won 2 dinner tickets for the Spirit of Lake Murray Dinner Cruise in July, to see the purple martins. It is going to be a nice Date Night for us and I am so excited I won it.

Being Thankful.......

Oh how Thankful I am for everything.  Through God all things are possible for sure.
