The past nine months have really tested the strength of my family. Our four person family has been turned upside down. It is interesting because my girls attitudes and moods have totally changed. In the past week we have been putting lots of hours into our new home which still isn't actually ours (CLOSING TOMORROW AT 11:00). I have seen my children become stressed and struggling because they don't really know how to show how they are feeling. So many changes and no routine. I know that this too shall pass but in the meantime my heart breaks for my kids. I have given this whole thing over to God. After tomorrow we will be home owners again!!!!!

STILL WAITING...

The past month has been one of many frustrations. I am not quite sure why bankers, lawyers and loan officers can't just work together. We have been trying to close on our house for over two weeks now. It has been the most stressful thing we have had to do. We had a closing date but now because of water issues, surveying issues, and flood insurance we are back at the waiting game! I am not quite sure why God has allowed all this crazy stuff but I am learning to be patient. I can't wait for they day when I lay my head down in my very own BED!!!!!!!

Blog Language...

I have learned a lot about the world of blogging. The more I began to look into it the more I became confused. I have had two snow days this week and have tried to take the time and change our blog template. Well... I changed it and still do not know anymore than what I did. I put in the effort, I guess. The technical stuff is just not my thing. To all of you that can do that type of thing...I applaud you! Maybe you could give me some tips.
