On a roll

Since I'm on a roll and posted twice yesterday I thought why not post again today. Who knows maybe this will get me back into the swing of blogging.

I am trying to think of subjects to write about and right now my mind is a blank. I think because the only thing I can think of is our move and where we were last year. At this time last year we knew we needed to be out of our house. It was a devastating time to us as a family but especially to Daddy. He was the bread winner of the family working hard to support us. Although the economy was on the down swing his job field was hit hard. Work wasn't coming in but the bills kept going out. When your in a situation like that there is only one way to turn. For us it was on our knees hands folded in prayer. Many judged us. Judged our circumstances and formed their own version on what was going on in our family. Even now others still judge. I feel judging is something that should be left to God. What matters is God has taken our family by the hand and lead us through. We knew he would and he did. Now we prepare to move for the 2nd in one year. And God willing the last time.

I love looking back and seeing where God has brought us. From no kids, to having a wonderful and beautiful son. From no job, no house, to 2 wonderful paying jobs, a great babysitter for Little Man (and VERY affordable!), to friends who are always willing to help us out.

My favorite moment to look back on is when I quit my job (of 3 years) back in college with no notice and no job lined up. I was unemployed for 2 weeks (which was a HUGE deal when I was paying my own college tuition with no loans and had 1 year left). I landed a job at a department store and met this great guy. Ten years ago we rang in the new year, 2000, as a couple. Six months later he proposed and nine months later we were married.

You never know where God will lead you.
