A little update

we are excited to be heading to NY a week from today,So excited to see my NY family and friends,I know it will be a busy week as we have to purge our storage shed like I said I will have lots of things so if you need something let me know we may have it. I cant believe that on Monday Gabe will start school where has the time gone cant hardly believe he is 5. He is his own little person. Life goes by so fast and the kids get big so fast.I can imagine how much the NY grandkids have changed since I seen them in March. I am still at the nursing home and still dont like it but sometimes God places us where we dontwant to be but we are exactly where He wants us to be if that makes any sence,I love the residents just dont love all the garbage that goes on there.
I am excited to be taking a mentoring training class this fall and hope God will use me to help others.I have had a fun summer but am looking forward to things slowing down a little would like to start stamping and scrapbooking again.
Today Gabe and Lily were here Sarah was helping Bill paint I bought a little pool for them and we filled itand I put bubble bath in it oh my what fun they had I gave them a pair of bath gloves and Gabe gave mom and dad a foot massage when they got here.I was thinking something that was so cheap brought a whole afternoon of fun.What is it with kids and water !!
Well time to get some rest may you all have a amazing week .

Love the Lord your God

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts.Impress them on your children talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road whe you lie down and when you get up.Tie themas a symbols on your hands and bind them to your foreheads. write them on your doorframes of your house and Gate, Deuteronomy 6;5-9.

I have a scripture box and this was my scripture for today.I like to believe that I Love the Lord with every inch of my body but at times I seem so far from God even though I am in theword and praying,then other time I feel His love surround me like none other .and take God for granted.I have to admit in this crazy busy world we live in its easy to make God last not first,even though we know life will be so much eaiser if He is first.I shoule be seekingGod at the start of my day not teh end of my day but I guess the end is betterthan not seeking at all?I am going to try to start seeking in the morning and maye the days will be better at work , its a really crazy place to work and the people I work with come from such mixed up families with so much emotional baggage it makes me sad.I honestly dont know how they do it without having a belief in God,.I just keep thinking of that song my God is bigger MY God is stronger MY God is higher than any other ,and if our God is with us then who can be against us,,,

onto a different note we arevery excited to be going home to NY in 26 days first was coming alone .but it all worked out that Jay can come too, we got our tickets for a amazing price a huge blessing, we are looking forward to seeing the kids grandkids my mom and brothers and anyone else we can squeez in, we have to sort our storage sheds figure its been in storage this long probably dont need it ...trust you all have a amazing week and take time to really seek God today..
