I found one....

Good Morning!
So many months ago I told all of you that after a LONG search for a lesson book for youth I gave up and decided to make my own lessons for our small groups.
As of Jan 2009, I have quickly learned, I can either spend 3 hours a week creating a lesson or doing other things; things like staring into the abyss, counting ants- skipping rocks (if only I had a lake in my backyard).
Anyways, last week I set out to find resource materials AGAIN..... I prayed, prayed, prayed and YAY --- VICTORY! I found the best book. It will last us almost all year, it has examples, movie clips and games. It's pretty much laid out the way I was doing  mine except someone else is doing the writing.
Thank you Lord for this gift! It is an answered prayer.

I am so happy! My prayers have been answered and now that I have free time I think I will build a house of cards today!
Yeah right, I am going to clean house, run errands, mail something, grocery shop, stop by the church and make some copies, put a booklet together, make a deposit, fold laundry, grab a gift card for Jo-Jo's 13th Birthday (can you believe 13).... maybe once I have completed my to-do list I will THEN maybe build a house of cards :) I dont know, it is a beautiful day..... I may just rush through all my errands and then do one of my favorite things in the world...
-> Sit outside with a cup of coffee and a book.

Have a wonderfully blessed day!

YAY....UGH!

Hello my 3 faithful readers :)

Just wanted to let you know that we are getting some rest- YAY!! All day yesterday and now today we are at home <- thats the good news.
Drum roll please..........
the bad news is, about 4am on tuesday Scott woke up vomiting voilenty and remained vomiting all day yesterday... He was running a high fever by 9am so, I called and made an appt with the Dr. He has some sort of stomache bug so, she gave him a shot to stop the vomiting, she said he was dehydrated so I loaded him up with meds and liquids and yesterday he slept all day long... which is good!
Today he woke up with a low grade fever but his stomache is not AS bad as yesterday. 

I stayed home yesterday to take care of him since he was not able to get out of bed except to throw-up... and today I am home feeling nauseaus. Nothing like what he was feeling that is for sure so,
with that.......... we are home resting: Day #2! YAY but we are ill UGH!

Have a wonderful day and thank you for your prayers for Scott!
