I haven't been blogging much lately. There have been lots of changes in my life, and I'm really excited about the new direction! So as I thought you all knew, but turns out you didn't, Peter is deployed again. What we thought was going to be 3 months out 3 months home turned into he'll be home for August, willleave again in September and we wont see him again until next year! I've been trying really hard not to be anxious and frustrated by it.
Also as many of you know I was a big part of HUG (Homeschoolers under God). It was a big part of our lives and due to changes in the group I have really felt lead to just back off. I took that suprisingly hard as well, (I still fight against change, I guess I'm more stubborn than I like to think). But I have really felt lead to focusing that enery more on one on one fellowship. So I've opened up my house and have been so blessed by having people come in that I could share my knowledge and growth with, and today was so amazing, a friend who I have admired for years before she even knew who I was came by and really I dont think she could even know how she really hit so many areas I needed reassurance in. And then the really big news. I "met" my brothers. As some of you long time readers may know, my mother was never in my life. She did send me a card once with a picture of a 1 year old baby and his full name on the back. That baby is now 21 and I found him (and his younger brother) on MySpace! I just got curious and typed in the name with no idea he'd actually ne on there, or know I even existed. It has been a surprise, but a huge blessing in getting to know them over the last 2 days. A lot of emotions and thoughts to sort through!
So that is where I've been. Thankful and amazed trhough it all. Love to you all!
Wow! That's a lot of change! I don't deal well with change either.
I came across your blog when I logged in tonight. You were the second one down the list of the ones most recently updated. Since "navy wife" is part of your profile name, I wanted to come see your site.
I'm an army brat, and I have a small prayer section on my blog for military personnel. May I add you and your husband to the list? Here's a link to the entry: http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Suzanne/53938/
It sounds exciting that you found your brothers on-line! How fun! Yet, I know that even *that* can add to the stress level in one's life. (Doesn't matter: good stress or bad stress... it's still stress.)
Well, I didn't intend to write such a long comment, but here 'tis. :) Hope you have a happy Friday.
