ME?? Work??

 
Sitting here watching The Lion King with the kids….Lyssa baby on my lap. Realizing that life is about to change even more. What a year its been!! With Mike losing his job, unemployment, Gramma getting sick, and me taking her place at work for now.
It’s still been a big change after being a stay at home mom for 13 years…..but we’re all adjusting. It has forced me to give the kids more responsibility, which is a good thing. I get to spend more time with my Mama - and Elyssa gets to have some bonding time with Gramma Cadle. Having to work has also helped my anxiety issues and helped us money wise…..so it’s been a good thing!
Not sure how summer will go with the kids home, but I’m sure we’ll work something out.

Baby Chicks!

 
The Easter chicks are growing and getting braver!

Easter 2013

 
Happy Easter! All of the kids got new baby chicks from the Easter Bunny…..so cute!!
I’ve watched The Bible on Tv the past few weeks. It makes all of the “stories” so much more real in my heart. What He endured for us. We are so undeserving!! I am thankful for what Jesus did for us.

Took the 3 younger kids to Lagrange Church this year for an egg hunt, then dyed our eggs afterward with Auntie Gloria. Haylee and Trisha went to church to help with the homeless outreach. So glad she can be a part of something meaningful!!

My biggest blessing this season had been the fact that Mike finally got saved a couple of weeks ago. I’ve waited and prayed for so long!! I cant even describe whats going on in my head and heart :o)

Random-ness

 
 I’ve got Jocelyn here staying the night with Elyssa. She loves having her very own sleepover. Its Spring Break so its been nice staying up late with the kids and sleeping in…..
Right now Its after midnight so today is the day Gramma goes for her pet scan, to see if the chemo is working. As much as we try to have full faith, theres always that nagging fear in the back of our minds. God has blessed us before with her health and we have to expect the same this time.
Hmmm, what else?? Sunday was my first day working in the nursery at church. But even more exciting, is that it was Mikes first day as an usher. I never ever thought I’d see the day :-)
Now…BED!!!
