My kiddos have been with grandparents since Monday evening and while it sounds like a great idea to most of you, I am really missing them, more than usual :) The house is eerily quiet and there aren't toys all over the floor! I have managed to get lots of laundry done and housekeeping but I miss the noise!!! We will be getting them back tomorrow. Chloe and her cousin Hanna have been with Mimi and Bopaw (my parents) having a girls week and Hayden has been with Nawna and Papa (craig's parents) with Caleb having a boys week. I am sure we'll have many stories and pics from their Grandparent Camps!
One thing I have been able to focus on more is my quiet time every day. I have been neglecting that and sadly have just gotten out of the habit. There are so many excuses I can't list them all, but the fact of the matter is just like going to the gym and exercising my physical body my spiritual life needs some strength training too! I have started a Bible study with friends on our street on the book of Daniel by Beth Moore and I am really enjoying diggin in. We are learning what integrity really means and how important it is for us to Resolve to be Christ-like as well as instill the desire in our children. One thing she said that really stuck with me is that Satan isn't going to attack us where we have our body armor on, he waits and preys on our weaknesses. We have become immune to so many things of this world and He has really convicted me this week about some things that we have allowed to creep in through the TV, radio etc that have no place in our house. They are so greatly disguised by humor or "the beat" that we forget they are so so wrong. Let's just say that like my blog, I too am a work in progress :)
