We had a wonderfully blessed week- with celebrations of both my M-I-L's birthday and my grandmother's 80th birthday. I was so sweet to spend time celebrating the lives of these two wonderful women in my life. I did take a few minutes to ponder how the world might change in the next 50 years and what my 80th birthday celebration might be like.
My little darlings are doing so well on both our new diet and our new schedule- and I am so proud that I have not stressed about the times we veered off the course of both of these. I am trying so diligently to work out that meek and quiet spirit that I am cultivating. So far- taking it a day at a time is working so well for me.
Now for our exciting new housing prospect- we have been praying that God would give us a house we can purchase (we are currently leasing a home) that will be a blessing to our family, that is in our budget, and that has at least an acre of property. We have come across a very old farm house that is on one acre of property, well below our budget, and we are going to look at it around lunchtime tomorrow. It needs a TON of work on both the house and the property, but that is right up our alley (my sweet dh is a builder/carpenter/the handiest man I know). If you think of us tomorrow, please pray that God gives us a clear picture of whether this house is for us or not.
I'll let you know how it goes soon...
~Blessings!!
