This Friday my dh, me and our two nurslings leave for Louisiana. My dh is going to check out a shop there (a potential job) and since he is going there anyway me and our two littlest are coming along. (I have never been to any southern states so this is a real treat for me!!) We decided to take this opportunity also to celebrate our anniversary. An anniversary weekend!! Feb. 11 is our 16th wedding anniversary! Hard to believe that 16 years have already gone by! I have been busy so the time has flown!
I will miss my other children but we are leaving them in good hands. I am looking forward to the trip and spending time with my honey! We truly need this time to reconnect and enjoy each other. Things have been very stressful lately with my dh's job situation and our finances.
This past year has been hard on our marriage. There are so many things the L-rd is laying upon my heart in regards to my own issues and attitudes. I have alot of work to do but I continue to believe that with Yeshua beside me I can become a jewel to my dh and his perfect helpmeet. I have not arrived but it will happen..
I appreciate all of you that are praying for my family and dh's job situation! Please be praying that my dh gets this job in Louisiana. It will be quite a change for us; culture shock I am sure. But I am really hoping we get to move south as I am done with cold and snow. But the most important thing is that we are where G-d wants us; His best for us! We want to be about His business; being His hands and feet!
Blessings to you all!

Nothing that I know of!
There have been so many good things that have come out of our struggles. The L-rd has been speaking to my dh and showing him so many things. My dh is learning and growing. I am learning and growing.
We are able to talk with our children about prayer and they can clearly see just how powerful it truly is! They get to see the L-rd's provision!
Tonight after we prayed we had a blessed time as a family just talking and discussing G-d's word. How we as believers so often take the Word and mold it to fit into our society or our world instead of us as His creation molding our lives to fit Him. We spoke to our children about learning to read G-d's word and to know G-d means what He says. It's not hidden so that we might not know. It is written plainly if we are but willing to open our eyes and look!
My dh read from Hosea and so much of what He read was true right now in our country! He was telling us to remember how important obedience to Father is! Obeying His commandments and not choosing which ones we want to obey and which ones we don't. Just obedience, plain and simple.
It was a truly wonderful time! I looked around at my children and thankfulness just filled my heart full to bursting! I may not have man's riches and success according to the American Dream but I have something that is much more valuable! I have a wonderful G-dly husband and 10 amazing children! I have 10 people who are part of me walking around on this earth! And you know what else? I can't take my van, home or jewelry to heaven with me but I can take my children! We can all sit at Yeshua's feet one day together! We can all worship the King of Kings with the angels together!
Now, you tell me, what's better than that!? Nothing that I know of!
Blessings!
