In Case Anyone is Interested...

So it's been a long, long, long time since I've done a blog. I think it's mainly because I've felt like I've had nothing to share with anyone. However I've been thinking....hmmmmmmm and guess what? I've got lots to share with anyone who is interested out there. Since learning that I'm going to become a grandmother(still not quite used to that word, ugh!), I've done my soul searching and decided that life is too short. So here's the thing...I've been busy, busy, busy. You all know that my husband left his job and went to school. That has been scary and exciting. Just think, I'm married to a schoolboy, lol! We have been living off my part-time income and our child-tax credit every month, way, way below the poverty line according to the government and yet we have been blessed in so many ways, it's humbling. When Heavenly Father said that He would open the windows of Heaven and pour out His blessings on us, He really meant it. I have come to know without a shadow of a doubt, that Heavenly Father keeps His promises. For the first time since being married our bills are at a "0" balance(never happened before), we have more wood for the winter than we have ever had when we were both working, we were able to take a trip to New York City for 7 amazing days. My wonderful and to steal a phrase from Kristi, "hot" husband has also managed to get "paint" jobs as needed. There have been so many miracles happening around us. Sometimew when we are in the midst of our trials it's really hard to see the little miracles. However when the fog starts to clear and we feel we can lift our heads a little bit higher, we suddenly notice life around us. Sorry no pictures, except the one of my lovely children...just getting warmed up, lol!
