Growing Pains
This morning I was almost there. I posted to my mommy group. "I'm am so close to the point of being done with this little adventure. I don't get it. Everytime the last few years that God has told us to do something, we do it. Usually without question, just an "ok, we are jumping,…
Weariness and Blessings
This adventure from God is starting to take its toll on us mentally and emotionally. I really do not mean to be a complainer. Yet I must be honest. First let me preface this by saying a few things. This is a path we chose. We feel this is what God is leading us to…
Drastic slowdown
And this is where progress slams to a crawl. We are into our second week of May and Mr. Man just started working Tuesday. We were really hoping he would have started back by the first (if not before). But that didn't happen. And everyone knows what the first of the month brings. So we…

Foundations

We still have 2 days left with the bobcat, we can clear and level more and deal with the foundation Wednesday or Thursday after it goes back. Heading out to the…
His Patience
You know what amazes me - regardless of how unworthy we are, the Lord blesses us. And I dont mean "us" as in my family, but "us" as all His Children. We are all fallen sinners, if He treated us as our human feelings tend to treat others who have offended us, we would all…
