Yea...you read right...he tried to dance with me today. The day did not start off right, but it ended with my Faith planted once again!
This weekend Alex is at Chrisalysis (spelling) so he will not be home until Monday night. We had the weekend all planned...Aaron went to Dad's for the first time until Tuesday. We drove him to Zanesville (designated trade off point) on Friday. On the way home my Mom called-she was in extremem pain. She has been sick for over 2 weeks and she had been coughing and something cracked. She went to the doctor and he gave her prednizone and percocet becasue she was not getting any better and she freaking cracked a rib coughing. So guess what...my over night sitter for Adrian was out of the picture. I freaked of course and started crying but I rembered that Beth said she would come to the house and keep him. THen it set in the there was church in the morning and I need to be in Gahanna to be Alex's prayer partner and I cannot drive him and me there becasue I have been falling asleep on the way home and the worry took over. I got a call from Alex and just lost it. He quickly said "I will come home", but I knew that was the easy way out. In anger and frustration I just hung up after I said that I would figure it out. Then I got a call back from him saying that we had an offer on the table from Quin that Katie, Abby and Annie would stay at our house with Adrian and Quin would pick them all up in the morning and take them to Gahanna. I talked to Quin and she made sure to tell me that everythign would be fine, that I needed to accept the help because that is what family does for one another. SHe also pointed out that this wasn't a sign that Alex should come home, but it was the Devil trying to mess with everything we are trying to do. Man oh man was she right. She prayed with me on the phone and we said our good-byes. Shortly after, Katie came over and then Quin called again wanting to stop by with the girls. They brought me a chocolate milk shake and we laughed and prayed and made plans for the night. We were completely set and my worry was completely gone. Katie and I went to Kohl's and then we came home and I got Choochie bathed and in bed. The girls came at 8:30 and we chilled and I headed to work.
You know, life is so trying and it is so easy to just give up. I have never looked at obstacles as the devil trying to get in, but that is so true. We have to pray and be strong and have loyalty to our Faith. As in my prayers each night let me say this..."Dear Heavenly Father, I love you so much".
I am more than ready for Alex and Aaron to be home! Only a few more days...

Wow! So true.
I love to see people that realize how important Faith in GOD the FATHER and JESUS CHRIST the Savior truly is. I also realize that you are one of the few that see how important family is. Family is the first ministry in the bible. Adam and Eve where a family of one then GOD instructed them to be fruitful and multiply creating the offspring’s of their love as a family. But o but satan was interested in dancing with Adam and Eve also. The main reason satan comes to dance or interact at all is to kill steal and destroy. He aimed to kill Adam and Eve's chances to establish a family without sin, he stole their innocents and he aimed to destroy their entire family. Satan aims first at the family that’s the start of everything. As a great teacher Dr. Adrian Rogers says guard your heart and protect your home.....blessings to you always in JESUS CHRIST mighty name AMEN!
