Update in a Nutshell

HEY!!

It's been a while. Many things have happened  since the last time I posted.

About the last pregnancy, well I experienced another miscarriage.

It was difficult going through that again, but the Lord got me through it. I know that one day I WILL see them again, and I can't wait!!! I KNOW that they'll have really chunky kissy faces...I can just feel it <3

I still have the baby blanket I bought for my first baby and the blanket and outfit I bought for the second. Call this wishful thinking...who knows, anything is possible with the Lord, right? ;)

About 1 1/2 months ago my family and I made a HUGE decision.

We sold just about everything we owned, except books and kitchen stuff, those of you who know me personally understand why, lol, and moved to Jacksonville,FL.

We were staying with friends for a month, but, unfortunately that didn't work out as well as expected. In fact, I'd like you to pray for my friend.

I love her very much, but she is very angry.

I am soooo confused about the whole situation.

 Nough said.

We are now renting a townhouse. It's really nice to have a place to call home.

We haven't quite gotten used to being away from our much loved family and friends, but does anyone ever get used to that?

I miss them all more than they could ever imagine.

Good thing is, I know that the Lord has led us here and He has a purpose in it all.

My 14 year old daughter went on a missions trip, with our SC church family, to Ukraine from June 25th to July 11th.

That in itself was a miracle!

 If you know my daughter, you know that she used to be afraid of her own shadow, but since she's gone and come home she is different. Praise the LORD!!!

I knew , when she told me that God was calling her to go to Ukraine,  that He was going to do some remarkable things in and through her.

I know she loved it there.

 She even speaks about moving there some day.

 She said, "Ukraine just felt like home."

She met a bunch of people, whom she adores and speaks of often, and is so thankful for Facebook, because now she can keep in contact with them.

And my SC church family...what can I say about them?

They are my family and I love them soooooooo much!!

They watched over my daughter as she was in Ukraine. She had lots of mamas there :)

I thank the Lord for them<3

And my parents...

Well, they rock too!!

We moved to Fl before the missions ,so we had to leave her behind( It was HORRIBLE for both of us, but I just kept praying and the Lord answered my prayers)to  attend meetings and missions functions to help prepare her for the trip, and they kept good care of her, and for that I am completely thankful.

My son turned 18 in May and graduated!!!!

WooHoo!!!

1 down, 3 more to go..all you homeschool mothers will understand what an accomplishment that is :)

He stayed back in SC, which broke my heart, but I know that the Lord has a plan for him too.

He is still my sunshine and will always be, even if he's not here:).

Boy, is it hard letting go.

You know it's going to happen one day, but then that day comes far too quickly.

I am proud of him.

He isn't perfect, who of us is?,

 but he has proven himself to be a very responsible adult.

 Praise the Lord, I taught him something useful...lol

He has just started a new job this week, which he's very thankful for.

Well that was what I call UPDATE IN A NUTSHELL :)

Write again soon.....
