Outside my window...the squirrel is being a pest, I think he knows that Aaron isn't here to try and keep him away from being a pest and eating all the bird seed.

I am thinking about AMY AND HEIDI and how blessed I am to call them - FRIEND and SISTER.  No, not by natural birth - but; by divine LOVE of our Heavenly Father who knew that they would be a PRECIOUS blessing in my life. I love you all - I just feel a special overflowing of LOVE and THANKSGIVING for them today.  Thank you, Lord for the GIFT of AMY and HEIDI.  You are so good to me, Lord and I PRAISE YOU for your blessings to me.

I am thankful for Katie's baby boy - Michael (born last night...safely)

From the kitchen - the cupboards are pretty bare and I'm getting hungry - Lord, make me creative with what is available for lunch.

I am creating - albums of pictures that were taken toooo long ago.

I am going - to do another load of laundry before the guys come home tommorow night.

I am reading/read the book of Philemon last night.

I am hoping that the Lord continues to do a work in me and my family and sees us through this time of stretching as we work on Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University

I am hearing - This is the air I breath by Michael W. Smith - LOVE it!

Around the house - the girls are playing "restaraunt".  They have reservations today for the "Queen of England" and "Jo" from Super Nanny. - LOL - What a combination!

One of my favorite things - Watching Aaron grow into an INCREDIBLE young man.

A few plans for the rest of the week:  *Just one - to get our family (the 5 of us) TOGETHER again in OUR HOME - with family camp last week and the guys away to Michigan this week - we need to be TOGETHER.  We are ALL missing each other.
