Wow! Soooo much has happened since I last posted in October. Chuck traveled with work for 5 months. He was home on the weekends and gone during the week. It was really hard on me but I am happy he is home and working in the store again.
In January, Jesse started the process of being evaluated for delays and Sensory issues. He is pretty much delayed in all areas but the biggest delay is speech. The sensory eval showed that he has Sensory Processing Disorder. Basically he has a hard time dealing with certain senses. The state is sending a speech therapist and a OT to our house to work with him on a weekly basis. I hope that he catches up so before preschool. I would really love him to attend the same one Bryan went to but if he isn't caught up he will need to attend the preschool at the elementary so that he can go to the therapists there.
Bryan completed Kindergarten with flying colors! He is working at a mid-1st grade level for math and science. He reads at a 2nd grade level but has a little trouble with the comprehension at that level. I am very proud of him. He also played soccer and will be starting swimming lessons next week!
As for me I have been keeping busy. I babysit kids 2 times a week and have been working on getting MOPS up and running! I am very excited about it!!!

Being Moses
Current mood: thoughtful
Category: Life
In Exodus Chapter 4, Moses and God were having a conversation that seems all to familiar to me....
10 Moses raised another objection to God: "Master, please, I don't talk well. I've never been good with words, neither before nor after you spoke to me. I stutter and stammer."
11-12 God said, "And who do you think made the human mouth? And who makes some mute, some deaf, some sighted, some blind? Isn't it I, God? So, get going. I'll be right there with you—with your mouth! I'll be right there to teach you what to say."
13 He said, "Oh, Master, please! Send somebody else!"
I have been feeling for some time that I need to step up and lead a certain ministry, but my lack of trust that the Lord can do anything through me has been holding me back. I have said time and time again to God, "I don't talk well in front of a crowd and I am certainly not good at leading prayer". I am slowly learning to give my life over to God completely and trust in Him fully with everything. "With God all things are possible" is a verse and concept that I know well and have said to others in the past, so why do I keep finding myself doubting.
I am doing a bible study right now that is making things so much clearer to me. I am very thankful that it is being offered at this point because it is exactly what I needed! I am hoping this will give me the push I need to do what God has been asking me to do!
