Happenings.......
Lots of happenings around my neck of the woods.........
First off.......I have a Kindergartner, say what?!?!!?? could someone please tell me when this phenom en happened because the last time I checked, she was a preemie who weighed 4.6 lbs. and easily fit on my shoulder???!!!???
Second off.......I have come to the glaringly obvious revelation that
I S T I N K at trusting God fully with my life and with my family's life.....I'm a total doorknob when it comes to this area of my life. I guess I am just a big ole narcissus when it comes to believing that I am somehow greater at making our life decisions that the Creator of the universe........ugh
Third off.....I totally pig out on food of all types when I'm
I'm an old fat narcissistic whiner who is in serious need of prayer......

Fourth off.......we pouw folk now.....I guess I knew that if my hubby pursued the ministry on some full-time level this would be the case. I guess I figured I would be OK with it, but now that we have sold (seriously) almost all of our earthly possessions and are sleeping on an air mattress on the floor, I am kinda being a big fat baby about the comforts that I thought I could easily give up....I suck!!
