Thoughts for the Day



I have started this new book called "Hannah's Hope" by Jennifer Saake (I highly recommend the book to anyone who is facing the challenges of infertility, the loss of a child, or anyone going through the adoption process) Anyway...I have just started the book and love it! My notes from today basically remind me that God has a plan. Sometimes I question why or when things happen but the way Jennifer puts it...totally makes sense. She states that it is like looking at a small piece of a complex puzzle and trying to make sense out of it. Even though we can get frustrated and not understand, we need to remember that God sees the big picture from beginning to end and that we can only see the little piece right now. This gets me very excited for the plans that God has for me...now just praying for patience! :-)

Stand Still

Came across this song this morning and it was really comforting. I hope you enjoy it!
Also on YouTube there is another video of the same song by Julia....I love it!

Puerto Rico 2011





We just got back from an amazing trip to Puerto Rico. It is so nice, even if it is only for a few days, to get away and relax! I love these trips with JD and am very blessed that we are able to go! Here are some pictures from the trip!

Here I Am!

Well, I guess the boredom of another snow day has lead me to blogging! Or was it an excuse to not do the cleaning and laundry…..hmm, let’s go with the first! I am kind of nervous about this blogging experience....I am not going to promise to be an interesting blogger or even to keep up with it…but I will do my best!
