Friends

I have been doing a lot of thinking lately about friendships and I have come to some conclusions. First the only true friend we really have is Jesus Christ. Then if we are lucky enough to have a wonderful marriage our husbands and then our children.
People in my life have dissappointed me time and time again, but the never ending love of my Lord and Saviour never dissappoints me. I'm sure I have dissapointed him many times but he is always there patiently waiting for me to come to my senses so to speak. My husband is the most wonderful man I have ever known. He has always been there for me through it all good and bad. I have had people through the years that I thought were true friends only to dissapoint me time and time again. So I think that I have come to the conclusion that having the love and friendship of my Lord and Saviour and my husband and children is enough.

Fresh Strawberries

My husband came home for lunch today and surprised me with a huge box of big sweet juicy red strawberries from the local grower. Ar strawberries are absolutely the best strawberries ever, even though they are a bit exspensive.

Can't believe it has been this long since I have posted here!!!

I can't believe it has been this long since I last posted. so much has happened since my last post. First we sold our home in the country last year and moved into town in July of 2008. With gas prices at that time, economy slowdown and loosing my income just made it impossible for us to continue to live so far out. We are hoping that in the next year we can find some land closer and build another home as we desperately miss living in the country. I guess the next thing of importance to mention is that my baby boys are growing up way too fast. C is in the 11th grade and B is in the 9th grade. Where does the time go and yet there is so much more we need to teach them before they are out in the world!
School this year has been so different for us. We lived out in the country for so long and our day always began early as we had animals to feed and quite a lot of chores to accomplish before we began school each day. Now with being in town the only animal we have left is our inside Westie susie. So our days this year start out a lot later and the pace has been a lot slower for us. For the first few months we did not mind it so much. But now we are so bored and just want to get back to the country where life is a daily adventure. Hopefully that will happen soon!!!
Well, thisn is all I have time for today. I am going to try to make a better effort to keep this blog up to date.
So have a great day in the LORD!!
