Good Evening Family and Friends! It has been a really busy day around here today. The children and I spent some much needed time out of the house today shopping. We started at the Mall (yuck!) and worked our way around to Wally World and the Dollar Tree.(it was DD's (17) idea to head to the mall.)

I needed to get some clothes for Dd (14) who will be going to visit her Grandma for a month or so next week. She has never been away from us for that amount of time and I am trying to act "grown up" about her decision. I know that she will have a great time visiting all of her cousins that she never gets to see and spending time with her Dad's Mom. I will just have to trust The Lord that He will keep her safe while away from me.

We also had a Homeschool Support meeting to attend today. I almost didn't make it in time. I left 2 bags of food at Wally World and had to drive 20 miles back to the store to get it. When I got there, they only had one bag. The cashier must have given the other bag ($12.00's worth) to another customer. )You can be sure that the next time, I will be a whole lot more mindful of where my groceries are at BEFORE I leave the store.

Anyway, I got off subject, back to the meeting. Only one other family showed up besides mine. With the exception of one family (thanks for letting me know.), I have no idea what happened to everyone else. We were suppose to plan our end of the year program. I am not sure what everyone wants to do. Prayerfully, I will be able to get a hold of everyone so we can make some plans.

I was blessed being able to talk with the one family that did come today. They are a couple who Homeschool their 5th grade son. They have been such an inspiration to me for these past 3 years. They have such an obvious love for The Lord. It shows in all that they say and do to others around them. Thank you Mr. E.K. and Mrs. Linda for being such a blessing in my family's life!

Having fellowship with like minded Christians who experience the same trials as you do is a blessing (not the trials, the fellowship) The Lord has blessed me with so many families to fellowship with. We get to share one another's burdens and pray for each other. It truly is a blessing that cannot be measured.

Well, as the picture I posted looks, so I feel right now. Its time to get ready for bed. Thank you Father for the day. Thank you for teaching me more about patience. Thank you Father for directing my paths and keeping them safe today. Thank you Father for Friends and Family!

To God Be The Glory, great things He has done and is still doing!
