Feelings...

I'm feeling a lot of emotions right now.

I'm upset, and disappointed in myself.

I'm blessed with Great kids.

I'm blessed with loving parents.

I'm blessed in so many ways.

I'm trying to count my blessings and be content.

It's hard.

I'm needing prayers right now.

High Strung

Janea is working on the words for the spelling bee tomorrow.

She is a little high strung about it....freaking out and all!

She won the 3rd grade spelling bee and now feels she has to prove herself this year and be the 4th grade champion.

It's a little tiring trying to help her and help her not to freak out.

She could use some prayers that she is in the top 3 in her class. That she stays calm and is able to spell the words well and correctly. That if she isn't in the top 3 that she will remain calm about it.

Prayer Request

My dad broke his wrist today.

He was playing raquetball and fell and really broke it! The smaller bone is broken in 3 places.

He will be having surgery tomorrow...Friday to have a pin put in.

Please pray that the surgeons will be able to place the pin correctly, that my dad will have minimal pain and that he will have a complete recovery.

Also pray for my mom as she takes him in and waits for him to be done and as she is his nurse for the next few days.

Prayer Request

Our van stalled yesterday on our way home from shopping, it restarted and when we went around a corner sharply it happened again. We were able to restart it both times and we are having it looked at tomorrow. I am nervous that it might be a large repair...and since I know really nothing about cars I am extra freaked out. Please pray that we can find the problem and if it's God's will that it be an affordable fix! Dan is being rather pessimistic about it and it's bringing me down. I am trying to trust but it's always a challenge...going into the unknown. I know it seems silly to pray for a car but I would appreciate it!

Interview

So Wednesday the 13th I have an interview at 10:30 for a possible preschool position. I would love to know what I will doing this year, and have a position but at the same time there could be quite a few questions that need to be answered. So I am praying for peace, a good interview, a positive response from the school and wisdom to face any challenges that come with a new position.

Prayer Request

Please pray that I get called for an interview this week. I have several applications out for jobs that I feel would be a good fit for me. I need to find a job and I would love to be on a similar school schedule as my kiddos. Please Pray that I can get a job in their school district! I am trusting in God's Timing but I am also a little anxious.

PLEASE PRAY!!!!!

I don't really know who all reads this (if anyone does) but if you do read it will you please pray for me today. We are moving in a little over one week and I am no where near where I need to be in the house or at school. I go back the week that we are moving. My boss is being gracious and said that I only need to come for meetings provided my room is ready ahead of time. So I have basically 10 days to get everything done. Plus my back is hurting right now so I am feeling rather uninspired to get anything done at all! I need supernatural help and I know that prayer is a fantastic thing so would you please pray for me today!

Possible New House

So we think we have found the perfect house! It's located in Peculiar MO and it has enough room for all of us with some to spare. Please pray that we will get it and that the transition will go smoothly!

All in all the process seems to be working but we will have to wait and see if this really is the place for us!

When it Rains...it pours!

Well, as if life wasn't a challenge already! Today was another stress filled day! I woke up this morning with a flat tire!!!!!!!! So not only is one car wrecked now one has a flat! Panic starts to set in and I rush in and I woke my husband up..we work opposite shifts.. and tell him that he will need to drive me to school so that I am not late for work! I call work, let them know I am running late, call my dad and see if he can pick me up since Dan will be at work and possible help me get the spare on this afternoon.(PTL, he can!) We drop off Jaron at the babysitters, and then head off for OPA. Janea was probably late for school this morning but that is the way things go sometimes. Praise God the flat happened in my driveway and not while I was driving.

So we are still looking for a replacement vehicle. The providence of God has been seen in that we are all safe, the rental was available, Dan's hours are better for my stress, and we will make it through these challenges!

I keep reminding myself of Philippians 4:6 "Be anxious for nothing but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God"
