Catch up

It's been a while since I posted.  Life keeps dragging me along.  Not digging my heels in too much right now though.  It's all been good.  
     School is DONE.  We went to the school ball game Friday night and I loved watching my man and boy out there playing.  Zerrick is a good ball player. Of course I'm prejudice.  Matt got a nice big bop on the head with the ball.  But my Sat morning it was almost down again.
     Market started with a bang.  I sold out easily the first week and the next week I increased it by two batches and sold out except for one pan.  So people are still eating nasty things that are put together with processed white flours and sugars and margarine.  Bless their hearts!  I even had one this morning....I have to say it tasted okay....but wow...they're gross if you really think about what you're eating. If someone else makes them though I usually really like cinnamon rolls.
     Saturday we had a lot on our plate and we had guests coming to spend almost a week....so with a great deal of help from Pete's family we got it all done.  We had a big ole Mother's Day meal here with our guests and family and Matt grilled.  It was most amazingly good.  
   So now it's Monday and our guests are out gallivanting for the day and we are all taking naps.  The two littles are on their way to dream land already.
    Our house adventure is going on!   We're to the point where there's not really any turning back now.  So I'm thinking colors of paint and new ways to organize and Market bake and a new yard and garden to establish.  Excited and amazed how God is working things out.  Sometime I will post pictures and all that.   When we get home from Idaho I want to start down the basement packing up...going through things and junking and goodwill  piles and all that.    
    So looking forward to Idaho!  See you all in a week!. 
     And there ends my post of our  little life....see you next time.

Happy Birthday Keagan

Keagan turned three while we were in Idaho. So we made a cake and celebrated with the Skrivseth cousins this year. He was enthralled watching me make the cake. Had to have his little hand on that hat! gazing in adoration at it. Just about ready to blow those candles. He kept telling me that we couldn't sing Happy Birthday though. He's easily embarrassed! Silly guy! I rather like my little three year.

Forgiveness

 Forgiveness  Forgiveness has bones It has a brain It uses logic  And common sense  Forgiveness goes about Finding a common ground. It shows up in common places. It happens unsuspected. Forgiveness allows one to Name the thing that happened. Forgiveness gives one a way To see it for what it was. Forgiveness provides for the  Empty spaces in conversation  And allows one to listen  And grieve outside of one’s own experience. Forgiveness walks into a situation  And remembers. But walks with peace And knows calmness. Forgiveness has an earpiece  On the heart  And a microphone  At his mouth Saying the words that Forgiveness has given him. Forgiveness doesn’t walk with fear. Forgiveness looks alone. But He’s always always  Hand in hand with gentleness and kindness. Forgiveness can stand alone though. It doesn’t melt away or dissipate  With time. Forgiveness is that little happy wren  On your shoulder  Forgiveness sings...

Let me tell you how God answers prayer

      Did I ever write on here that I am teaching school at our little church school?  I absolutely love it and find that it's been a neat way to feel useful and invest in our bubble.  But I am requiring my kids to tell stories and write them and read them.  And right now they are in a four week story writing assignment and I began to wonder what I thought I was doing requiring something of them that I am not really proficient at nor am I very knowledgable about.       So for my story to write  let me tell you a little bit about how God answers prayer.  Sometime I feel like I should write Jeanie's whole story.  But not this time.             Jeanie's been having focal seizures.  We don't know when they started.  All we know is that we were advised to go get her growing pain/ leg cramps looked into and it started the beginning of many tests of which we still aren't done with....
