“Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be though dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.” Joshua 1:9 Before D left on Sunday, we watched Facing the Giants. If you haven’t watched the movie, I highly recommend taking the time to view it. From the movie, we took away the saying that we’d praise God no matter what. This week, Munchkin and I reminded each other of this often. I’m grateful that we’ve been able to talk to D this week each evening. Can I say…

Thankful Thursday
Posted in Family
This week I am very thankful for all of the kindness, warm responses, and prayers that I have received from my fellow bloggers. We greatly appreciate all of the kind comments that you have left. I am grateful that although D will be deploying we still have some time before he leaves. Granted, he will not be here in the same state with us for the next few months, but there is a good chance that we’ll still get to spend some time together on some weekends. For this, I am very grateful. He may be able to see her…

Thankful Thursday: Learning
Posted in Family, and Homeschooling
Has your week ever started out in a way that made you feel like you just wanted to crawl back in bed and pull the cover over your eyes? You had so much to do and had no idea how you were going to get it all done? That was our week around here, but God had other plans for us. This week, we started back up with school. I was such a blessing watching Munchkin eager to learn again. Some of that love of learning had faded over the last few months because of the crazy schedule that we…
Thankful Thursday: Nature
Posted in Family
This week, as I thought about my Thankful Thursday post, I looked around the yard and saw the beauty of the Lord’s creation. How can anyone not believe in God after looking at His wonderful creations. I am grateful that the Lord not only takes care of our needs, but also makes things beautiful for us to look at. I am grateful that food not only nourishes us, but it also tastes wonderful. I am grateful that I can hear the beautiful sounds of nature around me. I am grateful that I can smell the delicious aroma of baking bread…
