Homestead Haven Beginnings

I'm home!

Yeah...I am home!!  We all had a good and very busy week and a half in San Francisco, but I am glad to be home.

I have to tell you all what amazing in-laws I have.  First my SIL and BIL had us stay with them in their home.  I have my 4 children, they have their 4 children and an foreign exchange student from Germany.  It was a full house, but the excitement was refreshing (most times).  I always learn so much from my SIL about being flexible and she just moves where the Lord leads, no questions asked.  She is so busy with her children, she has reciently started teaching at the Christian Academy, but just has the most wonderful attitude!

Then my MIL and FIL, they have 3 homes they could live in, but they have givin up those homes for others and have chosen to live at the Rescue mission.  They are willing to sacrifice everything so that one person might come to salvation.  They live, breath, and ooze Jesus.  I went to try to bless them by helping, but once again, I am the one who has been blessed! 

I am telling you though, that God has certianly givin them a supernatural ability to get up every morning and to serve the way they do...me on the other hand collapsed into bed as soon as I walked through my bedroom door yesterday, and the kids have been on "fend for themselves" duty, which I am paying for today!!!

Well, I have so much more to say about my trip, but my computer time for this morning is up.  Tomorrow, I will tell you all about my summer school teaching expierence, so, to be continued...

Blessings, Rossie

eager to hear more

Rossie, what an amazing time you must have had. Your in-laws must be absolutely incredible. You mentioned your sister-in-law's flexibility. Very convicting! Not an easy area for me, but I know I have improved some! Being a mom does that in a woman's life. I hope your vacation laundry pile isn't too deep....Blessings to you.............Denise (prairiemom)

Wow, your family is wonderful.

I was just thinking this morning "When is Rossie coming back?' and here you are! I missed all your upbeat, informative posts.

Welcome home.
