"God sets the lonely in families"
Psalm 68:6a
Our impending move is hanging over our heads. We're all excited to see where the Lord will have us this summer. God has been so faithful to us in San Francisco, that seriously, I have little worries about our next home and appointment. We do feel the weight of our new ministry, but everytime things have seemed impossible, God has amazingly made them possible. He wants us exactly where we are. I'm proudly all done kicking and screaming ;) and looking forward to this new journey in the ARC family. It's not how I expected things to go, but God does far more than we ask or imagine!! Just look at the family He's set me in...
Reading "The Giving Tree" by Shel Silverstein. I cry everytime I read this! The kids have it practically memorized, but I still insist on reading it often. Such a spiritual lesson here.
But it keeps them occupied. The kids will literally spend hours building together. Robots, towers, machines, castles, gardens, houses, RVs, theme parks, fortresses, or the soccer game above.
Dinner time. Come and get it! I treated myself to a Triangle Bell for our new home. It makes sense to me to use instead of having to take so long to round everyone up from the ends of the earth for dinner.
And here is some food for thought I'll leave with
I felt so encouraged in my convictions and still exhorted to do better myself after reading this.

Ooh, that article was good. Guilty! I will be more careful from now on. And why do we have to frighten young women with our labor stories? LOL! We need to be encouraging.
Wow! That is a lot of legos. I have a box half that size and that is it. My kids have a hard time putting things away when they are done, so I won't buy them anymore until they do it better.
Hannah cracks me up laying like that before the TV! How cute!
I would love to talk today. Let's try it and see if it works.
Love,

I love that picture of Mary! That is too funny!!
Praying for your family as you are "on the move" as well! It's good to know we are not alone and God is leading us right where He needs us most. We will have to swap new mailing addresses.
That was a fantastic article. Thanks for adding the link so I could read it.
Sounds like you've got a great attitude about the uncertainty of your next move. You're such an example to others.
Hugs to you and yours!
