nice day yesterday

Yesterday was such a great day for me. I got to take a break from "operation clean sweep", and get out among some people. I was able to volunteer at Aaron's school. They had a teachers appreciation luncheon, and I was able to help. Was great to meet some moms, and some of Aarons teachers. His school is quite large (1, 300 students) and there were a lot of teachers and staff to feed. It was a lot of fun. The neighbor als...

Where have I been?

Thanks for those who stopped by to ask, and for those who called.  So appreciated.  Love the love from this community. I'm so thankful for so many here.  My abscence can be explained only with the words "temporary insanity!"  LOL!!  Just kidding.  I was struggling there for a bit with whether or not I mattered, if taking the time for blogs was worth time away from my family, etc..  I was just strugglin...

it's getting closer...

..moving day that is.          Brian and I have been painting for what seems like days.       We live in military housing, and they allowed us to paint on the agreement that it would be put back to white when we moved out.  Well...I thought it was a GREAT idea to paint ALL the walls in our house four years ago.  And actually it was a great ide...

HHC Essay and pictures, LOTS of pictures. :)

   The theme of my holiday challenge came from Proverbs 22:6…”train a child in the way he should go, and when he’s old he won’t depart from it.”  As I sat in Denver listening to Bill talk of the health condition of our nation’s children, along with many others, I was in complete agreement.  Bill said, “What a tragedy to curse the next generation with something we didn’t fix...

A beautiful Christmas story...

...taken from my own life.  It was Christmas Eve day in the year 1999.  Aaron and I were living in N. Ky, just outside of Cincinnati.  I was a single mom, and had been that way for the past 5 years.  I had taken a hiatus from the medical field, and was working in the Cincinnati Airport at the restaurant CHEERS.  It was a fun job, fast moving, and for the most part I made great money.  It was also great...

We had so much fun!!

We made it home safely from New York City!  What a wonderful time we had.  Even though it was crazy cold, we were able to bundle up, and see so many sights.  I'm thankful for my "travel savvy" husband.  He honestly can navigate himself around just about anywhere.  We parked our car in Jersey, and took the train in to the City.  From there, Brian was able to navigate the subways, plan our itenerary via the i...

Simple Truth of Service

Has it really been 10 days since I've posted a blog?   That's not like me.    We have been blessed through the HHC. Brian and I were talking the other day that this has become the year of DOING.  Over the years God has layed many things on my heart to do, and I've not always followed through.  Sometimes because I just didn't "feel" like it.  Sometimes because my energy was low....

   We go to a gym that has two levels.  The cardio equipment, aerobic room, and track are all upstairs.  You can see the folks working out downstairs on the basketball court, and in the weight room.  It was a beautiful sight this morning to be on the treadmill, and look down to see Aaron and Brian playing basketball together.  They were having fun, working up a sweat, and that warmed my heart.  I know ...
