Got Toooooo Much To Do!!!

I've got soooo much to do, I should be getting it done, or at least starting to get it all done, but I heard a voice that said, "It's more important to read my Word. That other stuff can wait!" I am thinking, I've got laundry, unload the dishwasher, reload it, clean some stones, put away some cereal, pick up the downstairs, the list goes on.... The voice said, "Sit down and read My Word." I said, But God, I've gotta get it done, or at least get it started! We didn't get school done this morning due to another headache, I NEED to start it so we can do some school when Kotah wakes up! The Voice said, "What's more important, clean house, or reading My Word?" Wow, ok, you're right God! (as if He didn't know that already!!!) But seriously, how many times do we put off doing our devotion's or reading His Word because we have to get one more load of laundry in, or unload the dishwasher, pick up some toys... One thing leads to another, and by that time, it is either time for the kids to wake up, pick them up from school, make dinner... I'll be the 1st one to admit that I've done that, but I've been doing sooo much better! I'll put the kids down for a nap, and then do my devo's and Bible reading. Plus, I don't know about you, but when I get done reading His Word, I feel so much more refreshed and ready to tackle anything that comes my way! Like cleaning the toilets, yuck... (or cleaning up butt powder.... ;o) ) Reminds me of the verse in Philippians 2:14 (say it with me, I KNOW you know it!!!) Do EVERYTHING with OUT complaining or arguing!!!!! (The cap's are my version and the !!!!)
So now, I must go tackle the start of cleaning, unloading, reloading, picking up..... House cleaning here we come!!!! (I also put in the Skillet or Disciple cd, makes it sooo much fun to clean to those awesome cd's!!!! :O) )

Whew...

written 4-7-18 Wow! It's been a while since I"ve blogged...  Crazy fun times around here!  :) We had a BIG EVENT for our church Friday night.  It was awesome!!!  All about where we are and what we need to finance our new church building we are building!  We were to take a card and pray about a number and donate for the building fund.  It was a FANTASTIC awesome night to say the least!!! Curt and I have been praying about a number that God wants us to give.  We both feel a number, we can't afford.  haha...  We really can't afford anything because we still have 2 adoption credit card bills we are paying off.  God has blessed us and given us what we need each month.  But we want to give, and adding it up and looking at our budget and writing it all out, it's not there.  Nothing is there!  But that's the way it was with adoption!  We took that step of faith! So that was Friday...  Saturday morning went to kettle bell class and I died...  I honestly haven&#

Grandma

Grandma passed away this morning at 1:35 am. She had been totally un-responsive for the past couple of days. Yesterday we got a call and said she only had an hour, they said they made the mistake and grandma heard them, so she kept hanging on! Her feet had been cold and almost black, but they were starting to get warm and she was taking more breaths, but still very shallow. Finally she gave in and went home! The family seems to be doing ok, just please keep them in your prayers! The viewing will be Sunday and the funeral on Monday. I am not sure of the times yet, they are meeting with the funeral director in an hour. I am not going to be at the musical practice Monday nite, so Sandy May and Jena R are in charge that nite! I will have the lines assigned so the kids will know what their parts will be! Please help them out this week!!!! Thank you!!!! Thanks again for all of your prayers!!!!

Ultrasound

First of all, thank you ladies for all those sweet comments you made on my last post! How sweet you are for saying those things! Made my day!!! :O) Second, went for the ultrasound on Monday and everything is fine! WHOO HOO!!!!! No more placenta previa!!!! The baby weighs about 2 1/2 lbs, and everything looks good! We took the kids with us so they could see their baby brother/sister, they LOVED it!! Gavin was FULL of questions though! What's that stuff she put on mommy's belly? Why do the lights needs to be off? I only see one eye. Where's the other eye? What was that, is that his hand or leg? Oh my.... ;o) The tech ended up putting up a 4D on the screen, so that was really cool to see! The cord was kinda in the way, but I still think it was awesome! I didn't have that with any of the other kids!!! :O) Maybe the trick is taking 3 other siblings in to see the 4th!!! ;o) I also only gained a pound, which I am trying to figure out, seeings how I pretty m
