7/3/12

It has been forever again.

Back when my diary was written in daily, secrets & dreams were penciled in every page and shared with no one. Now, a husband, children and an AMAZING God keep and stretch every dream, fill my days and utterly exhaust me ( in a good way). So, no journal is kept, no memories recorded. Most days I'm happy to revel in the 'todayness' of exciting discoveries by the boys or conversations with Bill. Sometimes though, I think, perhaps I should write this down...
                                                                    Eathon & Fleas

On to some newsy stuff; We did chickens yesterday and will be doing more tomorrow. Everyone is at the stage of can't wait to get these DONE!. Not that we don't love our chicken, but at this point we are weary of plucking, gutting, fine picking and bagging chickens. Eathon and Cole are such a blessing, helping in numerous ways where they can. Next Wednesday is the last day ( God willing). Such a day to celebrate!

Today is the 1st Birthday of our niece, the "Miracle Girl" Ellie. Who despite her momma being told, 'there is no baby' and ' you need to move on', stuck true and leaned upon God and lo and behold on the 3rd ultra sound attempt a BABY!

Bill 'helping' Cole to trim a tree

Currently, I'm trying to work on three bedroom simultaneously. Stripping wallpaper and carpet in one, painting trim in another and the other is a store room right now. Thank goodness my husband is a patient man. My hope ( and goal) is to have less 'groovy, 70's feel' bedrooms and a more relaxed country home look. Either way, SO much fun to see the results of so many hours.

Chicken if frying, mashed potatoes are done, a salad will be prepped shortly for today's meal. Blueberries will be sorted and popped in the freezer for treats this winter. Laundry, dusting and some paperwork. A nap maybe later. Listening to the boys, 'stories beyond belief' and enjoying the breezes as they blow through the house will be the schedule for the rest of the day. We are blessed.
