Blessed Sunday

 
 
Numbers 24:21 Then he saw the Kenites and uttered his oracle: "Your dwelling place is secure, your nest is set in a rock" 
 
The reason I changed my Blessed Sunday picture to the above rock is because I feel this is gift straight from Heaven above.  Doug found this rock up at the family farm about a year after we bought our first house.   We then moved it to our current house when we moved in.  It is a beautiful reminder that God has his hand in everything.  The wise man built his house upon the rock, as the story goes. 
 
We must  remember to build our families up with good morals, beliefs, and strong foundations.  Raising children is not only a gift but a responsibility.  Parenting is the absolute hardest thing I have ever done.  It is rewarding as well as exhausting.  Some times my decisions are good and sometimes I find they are not.  I feel God has given me my children for a reason.  I was chosen for them and they were  chosen for me.  I am blessed to be the mother of these great girls and am excited to see the women they become.
 
I love this pic from Pintrest
 
How true it is.......
 
Have a blessed week everyone!

What's going on around here....

  I am joining up with The Simple Woman's Blog to bring you my weekly day book.  Link up and share yours and read the other links....          For today...February 2nd (Groundhog's Day) 6 more weeks of Winter was the prediction.   Outside my window....Snow.  We got enough to cover everything, but not the storm that was predicted.  I can handle this.  I will admit, snow is beautiful the first day before it gets slushy and dirty.       I am thinking...how nice to have the day off.  Sometimes using a vacation day to hang out around the house is worth it.   I am thankful and in gratitude for... an older daughter who is responsible and can run the house and the family well when left in charge for a few days.   I am wearing...my pajama pants and an Oklahoma Sooners hoodie, this may be what I stay in all day long :)   I am wondering....if raising teenagers will tur...

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...
