Daniel Fast

I am so excited to be doing this! I want to give it a try. At first I kept asking myself and God, what is the difference? I did the whole detox diet where I ate nothing except salad, fruit and veggies and the detox tea for a week, ok, had my one pepsi a day too. But I really didn't notice anything different. I kept hearing God telling me, trust Me, I will show you why you are to do this! So, I am super excited. Kinda preparing myself already. I haven't had a pepsi for 5 days, don't even really like the taste of one. Whoa, what did I just say, I didn't really LIKE the taste of it? Man, never thought I'd see the day! :O) Plus, I am doing yoga everyday. I like to do yoga, just not into the whole close your eyes, cleanse your body, pray to this so and so... No way, but what I do for that whole hour is pray. I didn't ever think I could pray for a whole hour, but I did! I feel GREAT! Today is the 1st day that I ate salad and fruit, water and did the yoga and did my normal devos. I haven't even started the Daniel Fast and am really looking forward to what God has in store for me.
(Okay, so I had a mint chocolate chip milkshake tonite! Have to eat it now!! :O))

Mandy, I totally know what you mean about yoga! I am in love with it, but I think people get carried away with honoring different [wrong] spirits, etc. I do exactly what you do. I think it is such a great way to spend time with God and get a good workout!

Run-Aways

Wow, this has seriously been an eventful week! Starting off with the whole fabric softener mis-hap, which you can read on here if you didn't see or hear about it! Then Curt left Monday nite, Tuesday, well, it was ok, we had mom's group and the kids were acting up a bit, but nothing too bad... Then Wednesday I had a meeting at the church... It started out ok, the meeting wasn't long at all! Gavin came into the room and said he wanted to go play outside on the playground. I told him no, because I couldn't see him. I said, what if someone came by and picked you up and grabbed you and took you somewhere? Mommy would never see you again and I would be soooo sad! I said, I can't see you, so you need to stay inside. Well, not more than 3 minutes passed and Kotah comes up to me and says, uh, mom, Gavin is trying to go outside. So, I get up, go over to him and talk. I asked him what is he doing? he says, I WANT to play OUTSIDE! I said, bubby, I can't see you, so you can...

Judah's Wife Book Review

I received this book from Bethany House for free if I agreed to read and then blog about it. Judah's Wife is by Angela Hunt. I've read a few of her books and absolutely enjoyed and loved them!  I was very excited to be picked to read this book! I've honestly not read anything from the books of Maccabees.  This story is the "silent years' between Malachi and Matthew. I really would like find Maccabees now to read it since I've read this book. This book was amazing! Love being able to read stories that really capture what it was like.  Angela Hunt has done this in this book. I really enjoyed how she told it from Judah's side and Leahs side.  It would go back and forth, but it wasn't confusing at all. Talks about Leahs up-bringing and how she struggled. Her father wasn't a real father figure and in time she realizes how much her mother protected her from her father and his blows. She struggles to truly love Judah at first who was somewhat fo...

Cancelled

What a busy crazy day! Curt left right away this morning around 7 to get his blood taken.  He got back and then Audrey got here.  We played and picked up for a bit then left to go to the Health Department to get our TB test done.  We got there around 10ish and they told us we needed to make an appointment.  So we waited for a bit to make an appointment.  Thankfully they had an opening for today yet.  They only do these tests on Friday, so we really didn't want to have to wait until next Friday if at all possible.  Got an appointment for 1:15 and 1:30.  I was thinking ugh, either no nap and very little nap, but I didn't care!  ;) Got home, cleaned up a bit more, got the kiddos some lunch, then we turned around and left to go back to the Health Department.  (I did NOT see the water guy! ;)) Got back there, got asked some questions, wanted to know why I need the test...  I said adoption.  They saw all the other 5 kids and as...
