About Me

I am the mother of two beautiful girls, Chloe 7 and Olivia6. I also have a 12 year old step-daughter Donna aho I am blessed to have in my life. My husband John and I have been married for the past 8 years. It's been a long hard road but because of Gods' awesome mercy we are together today. Our family just recently moved from Indiana to Georgia. It has been quite an experience packing up and moving away from everything we know.There is a time to carry our burdens alone, a time to share a prayer with a friend and a time to cast it all upon Jesus. I pray this will be a place to share in our burdens, we don't always have to carry it alone. This is my journey in what God is teaching me daily. I also pray it will be a place for you to join in to share our burdens but not only our burdens but the joy of Christ.

Grief

It has been awhile since I have posted anything one reason is that I couldnt figure out why I have been so bummed out lately. Recently my mom was talking about grieving and all the stages we go through. Not only do we grieve when someone we care about passes away, but we can also grieve a loss or change of job and in my case we can grieve a move. Everything in my life has changed with this move. Driving my girls to school then stopping at my moms for morning coffee, I no longer work, I no longer can call someone to say lets run to town, I dont have a youth group to plan lessons for, My cousins boys dont come over to play. Everything that I once knew as my life has drastically changed. I think it is just now really hitting me. I do love it here. I love it being the four of us, although my husband and I can no longer go out alone on a date. Until you pack up and move from all that you know it is hard to understand. I never imagined the emotions I would go through all because we moved. I believe God is behind this change 100% so that helps me to cope with all the changes taking place but it is still a struggle. We dont like change we like whats comfortable, but how can I grow in comfortable. I pray God will relieve me of this grief so that I may grow and learn what He has for me here.
