Three Week's To Go!

Well, we have three weeks from yesturday until we leave! WOW!

 

It seems that "life" just won't stop so we can move! I have been feeling very overwhelmed. There is just so much to do, besides all the mental, physical, and emotional energy this is all taking. I spent a good long time in The Word last night. What a refreshing for my soul! The Lord really spoke to me through Psalms. Thank You, Lord!

 

I took a day off from project move today. Part of me feels guilty, and part of me knows how much I need the rest.

 

Amongst all the other things, I have been working on putting together things for the children to do on the drive over. I am putting state folders together with activities for each state we go through for the older three, and lots of fun things for the little ones to do from childcareland.com and the corresponding yahoo group. I have put our printer to work on this one! I have printed several file folder games, books, matching and sorting type games for the little ones. I haven't come up with much for Zachary to do. Ugh....... what to do with an active 20 month old boy for seven days in the car?

 

This week will be a busy week for us. I have doctor appointments, we have a dentist appointment (which is an hour drive each way), and a few other "have-to's", Sadie's birthday is Friday (I can't believe my little girl is going to be 7!), Saturday a friend of mine invited me to got to a ladies tea with her at our chuch (this will be the last time of us getting together), and Saturday afternoon my sister and her family will be coming up for the night! WHEW!! Oh yeah, and we still have a ton of packing to do!

 

I am going to work on all those print-outs I have for the children before heading to bed. After Zachary falls asleep I will have my most treasured time, my time with my Father!

 

I am so thankful that I have the Lord to get me through this. Really, He is doing it all! Praise be to God!

Oct. 10, 2006 - Praying for you

Posted by Ruth


Just want you to know I will be praying for you as you prepare for your move. If you keep spending the time with your Father, He will give you the peace and strength you need. Don't feel guilty for taking one day off. Take care of yourself during this difficult time.
