where i'm at.



I'm content.

Content in my home.
Content as a Mommy to 8 (soon 9) wonderful children.
Content being married to my bestest friend.
I don't need to fill a hole.
Jesus has already done that.
The two oldest cupcakes and I are reading the one year bible.
Reading my bible just makes me want to read it even more.
Hubby is contending for family worship/bible nights.
My Spring bulbs are already blooming.
I just finished reading 'Family Driven Faith' by Voddie Baucham.
Seriously-- I don't think a book can get any better.
The flu is gone (I think).
The weather just keeps getting better.
I can't sleep at night.
I am excited to meet our new little boy who's name I want to share, but won't.
I am petrified about how bad delivery is going to hurt.
I'm not gonna lie.
It almost makes me want to get an epidural, but I know I won't.
I am gonna make sure hubby won't let me when I want to give up.
That's why I started reading "The Lord of Birth" by Jennifer Vanderlaan.
I am infatuated with the garden in my front yard.
I can't stop staring out the front window.
Oh--and Jasper has realized that he can throw himself down and have a real good tantrum.
He learned it from his big sister Ruby.
My body has decided to stop working with me.
Which means I have to get back on the treadmill.
Which means more tired.
Which means in the long run more stamina.
I am on a quest with my kids to teach them how to defend their faith.
If you haven't already, buy your kids everything "Jonathan Park" from Vision Forum.
These cd's are the best!
It's good to know Jesus.

We also love Family Driven Faith!
