just have to write again
My goodness two nights in a row that I am actually blogging! I can't help myself though. My husband and I just watched the most depressing horrid movie EVER well I'm not sure if ever but pretty darn close! It was called Revolutionary Road. I found myself just hoping God please let this get better. *warning do not continue to read if you plan on watching it and don't want it spoiled* I knew from the get go she was going to kill herself/accidently die something like that. Just kinda predictable on that account for me at least. It was so tragic. The thing that got me the most was she was truly so CRAZY in the head. She just couldn't be satisfied with the wonderful things she did have in life. The guy now granted he did cheat on her and that was HORRID but he truly loved her and was trying to do his best! I mean Lord lord he wanted to provide for his wife and family to take care of them. All because she couldn't move off to paris and have a job there she goes and has a home abortion and dies! Why couldn't she be thankful for the blessing of a child and the blessing of a husband that loved her and wanted to be there and take care of her and the children. She couldn't be happy just living life she wanted to "BE SOMEBODY" well ya know what we ARE ALL SOMEBODY! Even the lowest of the low joe shmoo at your work place or the mommy of 4 with sometimes clean hair lol the jobless the homeless the crazy man...even bad people like irs people and collectors and murderes and all that they are somebody. We will ALL give an account someday before God for how we lived our life and the things we did in it and the thankfulness of our heart fot the things he gave us even the challanges! I know I'm bad at spelling and grammer when I blog most the time and I know it usually doesn't flow and that it's not usually all cool and whimsy filled and yadda yadda...but I have to write about things on my heart....and that movie just put back in my heart what has been there for so long BE HAPPY for what you HAVE and do not POUT over things you WISH you had! God will give us all we need!

life love and the chasing happiness
Yes yes I know my blogs are few and far between but I just have to tonight. For the past year and a month I have had basically no kitchen....I've learned how to do with little you could say lol. My sweet and most beloved husband had this grand idea to build me this awesome kitchen that would be just "the best thing ever" he said. Well, LIFE happened. His hours got cut his pay got cut he then got LAID OFF. LOL sooooo the kitchen kinda fell off to the way side and that little dream seemed to be put on hold foreverish lol.
BUT in the meantime we had little Liam and wondered how are we gonna get a van. LOVE happened a little birdie who'd not want to be named gave us the money to get a van. With the understanding we could pay them back at tax time and such. This was the biggest deal to us I mean it just gave us such a faith builder and the boost we needed to feel uplifted. We also around that time found out about the Duggars. They have been a HUGE inspiration to us as have the Bates. The more we read about them and watched them the more we just felt so moved by God to start trusting in him in ALL aspects of our lives. Of course that brings those who would judge us and bla...BUT that doesn't matter because we know that our hearts are set on the Lord and this his timing and his alone will decide all things in our lives. From apart from him we can do nothing AMEN?
Ok so we have placed our faith in God on how many and when our children shall come. It is what he has put on us to do. Ya know what I've been so happy and so less stressed since doing so. Not just children but EVERY part of our lives. Things just fall into place and he continues to lead and guide us in every thing we do and see. Even our children have drawn closer to him and say we should thank God for doing this for us.
The one thing that still just seemed out of reach was you guessed it the KITCHEN lol ...but ya know what I decided to not let it take away my HAPPINESS and guess what.....about two weeks maybe 3 God gave us money to start working on the rebuild of the kitchen!! Right after I said ok I'm just gonna put this in your hands again, let go and be happy no matter if I wash dishes in the bath tub for the rest of my life...and there it came and HUGE gift to us. Tonight I washed dishes in my kitchen sink and began to put things way in my new cabinets! What a gift what an awesome feeling. What a mighty God we serve.
The next time you feel down or see someone around you feeling down or sorry for themselves say to them you know what god has given us Life, Love, and Happiness! It's all provided by HIM and him alone. You don't need a spouse, kids, great job, money, huge home...NOPE you just need him and your faith and trust in him.
