What a long time it's been, I'm not even sure what my last post was about!
It's hot here in Indiana on this 4th of July. We have been living here for 15 months and still have not sold our home in MI. It's a sore subject for our family because we really would like to have a nice cozy place of our own. We have to keep telling ourselves and believing that Gods plan for our future is so much cooler than ours we can't even fathom it yet. I'll keep you posted on that topic.
The kids are growing like weeds and I have gained at least 15 pounds since moving, blah. We love our church. Worship has never been so moving and emotional for me in my life, honestly, no lie. We are adjusting to living amidst the farmlands, but have an appreciation for it that only grows with every season.
We are continuing to make friends here as we did in our previous area and hope that the bridges we are building here are as sturdy as the ones we still cross with our Saginaw friends.
How strange it is growing older. I think every day about my life and where I'm at, where I've been. Where WE have been. Eric and I are working on 10 years of marriage and it's been somewhat of what I think of as a "normal" ride. I hate to say that because I don't think Eric and I are "normal". When I think of the family, friends and acquaintances that surround us, I have to give us credit for the unique life we lead. At times I even wish we were more normal. Wish Eric had a 9-5 job and that I actually desired to stay home all the time for my family. I keep thinking that I want the best for my kids. I want them to be well rounded and happy. Never losing their innocence and finding their faith and walking the path God has laid out for them.
I hope that I can blog more. I hope that I find the creative side of me that I feel has been hidden under all of the life stuff that is so necessary. I miss you all!!
