"It’s important for moms to recognize that all the small successes in our days can add up to one big triumph. So on Thursday of each week, we do exactly that."

This one is not a small success at all but a HUGE answer to prayer thereby being a HUGE success. After working part-time four days a week as a substitute teacher at my daughters school for the past two years, this week my husband agreed to my working only one day a week instead. This is so unbelievable. I have felt more and more overwhelmed lately with Court's care, Jerry's increased work hours, my writing commitments as well as being in charge of all things home/budget related. I have been praying for guidance for so long and God chose to answer it in His time. So my challenge will be to stay on budget and on task with a cheerful content heart. I am looking forward to it.

I have been patient and encouraging to J as he has adjusted to being home and all it entails. My job is to quietly pray, be supportive, and stay out of the way. So far, so good. I am proud of him and I know God has a hand on him.

I made a special dinner for my husband last night as a surprise. J had a late class and we had the house to ourselves so I took full advantage. It was so lovely, it reminded me of our time as young marrieds. We talked for hours and reconnected after a difficult few weeks. God is good.

Oh My Dear sweet friend,
You are too kind! I am so thankful that Our lady walks with all of us who call upon her. I don't know what I would do without her.
I can't wait to see your little boy born healthy and in the arms of his dear Mama.
Blessings and Grace to you...
