Quality time

I love spending time with my kids!  I love when we are all together, and I really love when I get to spend some one on one time with them getting to know them better.  Today I got to spend time with my son.  He's going to be 15 in a few short days.  He's starting to discover girls...LOL!  (not in a bad way)  He's so cute, because we have a bond and a trust that I don't think we'd have if he went to public school.  He will tell me and often ask me, "Do you think she's cute, Mom?"  I love that.  It goes both ways...I'll find a cute girl and ask her what he thinks.  I'm so blessed to be this young man's mom.  Thank YOU, LORD!  :)

Bass and Body Shop

Yesterday while driving down to see my sister, DH mentioned something about wanting to pick up a cot for the boy.  I said, "We should have picked one up at Bass and Body shop" LOL.  I was trying to say Bass Pro Shop.  Should they open up a place called Bass and Body Works for men?  ;P

One Last Post for 2010

2010 I'm glad to see you end.  It hasn't been a bad year, it hasn't been great either. I think I'll reflect on this and think about how I've changed....

I think I'm probably furthest from the LORD then I ever have been in my walk.  :(  Not a good thing, but I'm being honest.  Yet I heard a friend one time say, the time I thought I was the furthest from the LORD I look back, and I might have been the closest.  HMMM, I hope I can say that someday.  I'm not saying the LORD hasn't had me in the palm of HIS hand, I just not "feelin" it...um yeah, I know we don't go by what we feel....

I don't think I met any of my goals that I set in January.  :(  Do I feel like a failure?  Um, yes and no, thankfully the LORD's mercies are new everyday.  :)  So I'll set new goals and go from there.  I might make them, I might not...but at least I set something to achieve.  :)

I'd appreciate prayer for 2011. I'm struggling in areas I thought I had dealt with and put behind me.  Perhaps the LORD is raising me up to a higher standard...unfortunately, I think I'm failing miserably. 

• Also, pray the dh's job will go direct, or provide until we can get the BBQ business in full gear
• For oldest dd, that the LORD will give her direction and that she'll move that way
• For ds, that he'll hear the LORD and make the necessary directions
• For dd, that she'll continue to serve and grow in the LORD
• For my friends, several are going through many difficult situations that they've never dealt with before.

Hope you all have a wonderful New Years. 
Blessings!
