Another journey???

Wow, I can't believe it's been so long since I have wrote anything. SO much has happened. The Lord has really been working in my family's life.  Over the last month, I have seen my husband and I grow closer together. My children has become closer too.

We have had Zech's ballgames all month. In his regular season games, the team was 3rd and in the post-season tournament, the team came in...3rd! It has been amazing to watch all these little boys grow so much over the season. I loved every minute of watching them, even the few losses they had!

Amber was also busy this last month. She and my nieces had their dance recital. Amber enjoyed it so much, she has asked us to take more classes next year. Rick and I have seen her change so much, I would love to keep seeing this maturity happening.

I, myself, am starting on a new journey. Last month, I decided I was going to be selling Pampered Chef. So far, I have held 3 shows. I would like to hold 3-4 shows per month but having 6 would be even better! I've also been reading a great book and learning more about myself.

Rick has also grown so much this year. I know usually about this time of year is when he gets frustrated and needs a break from work. This year is no different. However, he keeps saying he likes to go to work so he can provide for us. He also makes sure that each one of us in this family knows and feels his love for us. I really couldn't imagine our lives without him.

With that being said, we are all starting on a new journey together. After years of requesting and praying, we are going to start the process of adoption. We are not saying yes and we are not saying no. Rick & I will begin taking PS-MAPP classes. We are doing this as an informational class. We will constantly pray as we go through these classes. Whatever God does or doesn't have in-store for us, we will be listening. I ask that anyone that reads this be in constant prayer for also.

Our lives will change in a major way regardless of how this ends up. Our children's lives will change also. No matter which way this is sliced, God is really shaking us up. I can't wait to finish this "New life in a cemetery." My God is truly a God of compassion, mercy, and forgiveness. What an awesome God we serve!
