just be

It is amazing the way God will show you exactly what
 He is wanting you to learn,

if you will just be... 

He puts people in your life to teach you, guide you
and make you a better person.

I am learning a lot about kindness, generosity and patience lately.

 I am also learning that God's timing is perfect

 even though at times I don't see it that way.

This job hunting is teaching me about humility.  It isn't always

easy putting yourself out there,

 worth it?  Yes!  Easy?  No!

So I am learning a lot these days

and soaking up every minute that I get to share with my 3 wishes.

School is starting in three short weeks here and
we will all be so busy with sports  

for three and play rehearsal for E and Madi.

Life can change so quickly and sometimes for the better and at other times

 I feel like I am fighting a losing battle.

I don't like feeling that way.

So for now, I will just soak up

the time that is left and enjoy each second because it truly is a gift!

I took Fran, (our neighbor) dinner last night and it was so sweet to catch up.

She informed me that while we were gone to Ohio, she and her

daughters decided it was time for her to move closer

to them. So I am losing my dear Fran.

She is sad, I can tell, but believes that it is time to make some

adjustments. We will miss her so very much!
She is a spunky gal for being 90.

My children love her. I love her.

I know that things can't stay the same forever, I know that with change comes

growth and new possibilities. Sometimes that does not

make it easier to deal with however.

So my week has been full of unpacking, cleaning, catching up on laundry and

shuffling kids to where they need to go.

Summer will end far to quickly for my liking
