a work in progress...

That is my life...really all our lives...isn't it...we are a work in progress...and I must say...some days are hard, hard, hard...and others are not to bad...but in the end it is still a process...life....

Today I find myself thinking just how blessed I am...I have a husband that loves me and makes me feel like there is no one else in the world for him...and he has loved me when it must have been some of the most difficult days of his life...I'm thankful for him and for the Lord that loves us both and was and is working this life we have together out for us and with us and thru us...

I'm thankful that I have 4 incredible kids...3 son in laws...and new special friend to our list and for my sweet Amy so far away from us...I'm thankful how our hearts are bound together...even when we have different personalities, likes and differences...even when we have to many miles between us...one of my kids has absolutly come to life the last few weeks and I feel blessed to see that...

I'm thankful for my sweet grandbabies...Scott tells me they are not babies anymore...but they are to me...each one of them...with their sweet personalities...and I cannot wait to meet our new little Laney Kate in just a month! They are one of the true joys of my life!

I'm thankful for my church family...I love you all so much...I'm excited to see just what God has in store for us in the coming months...I'm sad I'll miss several weeks with you...but I'm blessed to be a part of a church lots of miles away and will serve beside them for a time and know EBC my heart and my prayers will be with you...

I'm excited/nervous to go to my WW meeting tomorrow night...because I so want to be able to say...I hunger for the Lord more than anything else...and I'm not there yet...Lord take me there...teach me how to hunger and thirst after You...

I'm blessed that I have so many of you praying for me and encouraging me on this weightloss journey...I have an amazing student ministry behind me...cheering me on with each success and encouraging me with each failure...

Thank You Jesus for letting me be apart of their lives...all of them...and thank you for being my life...!
