Just Keeping On

Many people have said that they don’t know how I do it. They say that they could never do what I do. I tend to think they’re wrong as God gives you the strength to do what you need to do. It’s not easy, and I miss my beloved very much. I just do what I need to do with the Lord’s help. Each day, Munchkin and I wake up, and we cuddle. In the evening, before bed, we cuddle.

Posted in Homemaking

Bible Study/Devotions: In the morning, I am reading the Daily Bread devotionals. In the evening, I am continuing to work my way through the Beth Moore book To Live is Christ. Munchkin will be continuing with her Keys for Kids devotions. She is also doing her Frontline Kids “workbook” for Wednesday night program. Must Do List: I really need to get some baking done to send my beloved. I am way behind on getting him homebaked goods.
