Well things to do. Ok let’s not start there that’s just too overwhelming.  Umm things to think of,… ah that’s better. What am I going to be for Halloween? My four year old wants me to be a fairy, but I am slightly concerned that his favorite color is pink he loves pannnnkkk he say, and as I turned around this evening he was trying on my fairy wings. Humm, note to self,…” Not going to worry about that one, yet..”  What else ah yes need to start up a few new awesome jewelry parties this week.  Am so excited about Halloween but I still cannot decide if sexy whitch is better in order to attrack my hubby?  Or be a fairy, which will delight my son and my mother made a trip to purchase me wings?  Humm,… don’t want to dissapoint my little angel, don’t and don’t want to hurt mum, but want to be sexy too.  My hubby pointed out the fairy wasn’t his favorite.  And now I am back to the drawing board. We always have a family shin-dig every year and this year I am emotionally a little fried but refuse to disappoint my babies.  I just can’t wait for those beautiful little trick or treaters to come to our home.  I really love Halloween! The colors, the candy and costumes. It’s just too fun!  My favorite thing though are those wonderful family memories I make with  my hubby and our kiddos. My hubby is always so awesome to dress up. He really is number one dad. The kids get such a kick out of seeing daddy dressed up as, Optimus Prime, The Burger King King, and one year a Greek man.  He got a lot of crap for that one… A little boy who was trick or treating stopped my hubby as we were making the neighborhood rounds and said, ” Why are you wearing a dress? Aren’t dresses for girls!”  My husband could only retort,..” It’s a toga!”  Ha! Ha! I felt so bad that I chose his costume that year. So needless to say my husband likes to choose his own costume. But this year I think we will officially go with the transformers theme. Keegs our oldest will be Bumblebee. Gabe will be a dinosaur and Ella will be a little yellow duck. My mom is a whoopee cushion and everyone else is a secret. It is an absolute blast to see what everyone comes as. One year my dad was that Cat in Hat. It was awesome, tail, hat  and all! Our family really gets into it all so this year I hope it will be a wonderful and blessed Halloween with wonderful family memories.  May the Lord Bless You and Keep You. And have a safe night trick or treating!

the questions

I think all of go through trails. Trails that question our faith, make our marriage stronger and make us realize how much we take everyday silly things  for granted. My hubby and I are going through something almost out of a fiction novel.  There are times when I simply sit down and pray and have a conversation with the Lord. Questions of why, questions of when, and what day……But the crazy thing about having a relationship with the Lord is that we are on a need to know basis.  And right now I don’t need to know, at least not until the Lord has accomplished what He is trying to grow in me.  A deeper love of  my spouse, even thought  I couldn’t have a better marriage our walk with the Lord through this trial is reshaping, remolding both of us into a Christ centered marriage.  For this I am forever thankful. As a child I remember having to trust my parents in their decisions for me.  I remember how hard it was to rely on someone who knew better than I. And in the end the lesson learned took me further than I could have imagined.   But what He has planned further I cannot even pretend to fathom.  I know his hand reaches farther, his blessing to touch out into our futures, and our lessons learned to hopefully be a blessing to others.  There are times as a mommy I question on how this will affect our children?  How will this grow our children into the woman and men of God the Lord will call them to be? And above all will the Lord use this for His glory and our children still be happy children of God?  And then it comes back to choices and what we choose to do with what he has given us. So tonight Father I am asking for your guidence as your child, a wife and a mother. Make me into the woman of God that you have call me to be, the wife you have called to be, and the mother you have made and are creating me each day to be.  Thank you my Father.  I love you.
