Starting a Family :)

I'm pregnant! yay..... lol :)

Ben and I will be moving to Texas soon. And then maybe Colorado in two years. It has been both of our life long dreams to live in Colorado so that will be cool. :)

He will be getting a CDL and drive trucks locally while I start raising 6 kids, that's the goal anyways. :) I'm so excited.

I am planning to homeschool, at least until each kid reaches high school. Then I will trust them to fend for themselves and make good choices. :)

I think kids are too easily corrupted at school by class mates these days. Also now there is tons of violence in schools; kids getting beat up all the time. It's so sad. :( There is even sexual abuse happening in schools. Unbelievable. Where are the teachers is what I want to know? But it is hard to closely monitor hundreds of kids at a time. I know, I have worked with kids a lot.

For me growing up school was always a safe place. Home was not safe, but school was. I always loved all my teachers and all the subjects. I was never picked on for anything or beat up. I always loved learning and I always had good friends at school. School was always where I was most happy.

But sadly, and I blame MTV, schools are not what they used to be. So homeschooling will be good. :) I homeschooled a 4th grader for a few months in every subject and enjoyed that. Homeschooling six kids at the same time in different grades will be a challenge but fun. :) I certainly won't be bored lol which is the goal.

I'm so excited to invest all that I am in these new kids we will have. I pray everything goes well with the pregnancy etc. And may God help us find the best place to live in Texas and then Colorado. :) Amen.

Abuse

My dad who did something to me when I was a kid was just convicted of molesting another kid. I knew this would happen eventually sadly. Here's a video I made to be used in court against him so he doesn't hurt anymore kids. Please pray for the kid or kids he hurt. :( so sad. Watch if you would like to or have known anyone who was sexually abused etc....

AMAZING

WATCH THIS!!!

YOU CAN'T HELP BUT GET CAUGHT UP WITH THEM IN WANTING TO PRAISE GOD! THIS MIAMI, FL CONCERT WITH HILLSONG IS THE MOST AMAZING THING I HAVE EVER SEEN! WISH I COULD HAVE BEEN THERE! MAYBE I WILL BE AT THEIR NEXT ONE :)

PRAISE GOD!

Working

Life is good :)

I am working full-time finally again, at a pre-school. After 7 months of not working at all. It feels good. I find it to be very hard at times but I know it is good. I keep thinking of that part in Joyce Meyer’s sermon on “Don’t Go There” when she says, “No discipline for the present seems joyous but later on it produces fruit and perseverance.” The fruit of working will obviously be a paycheck but also more faith in myself that I can endure hard things.

Work is where we prove ourselves isn’t it? It’s where we find out what we are really made of. We don’t know how much patience we are capable of until it is tested yes? Yes. :)

Working with 8 or 15 small kids at a time requires a lot of patience. And apparently, I have what it takes, which is good to know. Lol :)

I have always had a lot of respect for pre-school teachers, because that is such a hard age. Some people say, “It’s just working with kids. It can’t be that hard.” But those are the people who have never done it. Lol :)

3 year olds are by far the hardest. We are born with original sin right? So working in a pre-school is like working with a bunch of wild stallions and trying to train them. The book Boundaries says that everything a person needs to learn about respecting self and others they need to learn by the age of three, or life will be much harder for them if they don’t learn it. Therefore working with two year olds is perfect and is the most significant thing anyone could do really, because that is the training ground that will dictate how the rest of their lives will go.

The best thing about work being somewhat hard is I have no desire to blow my money I worked so hard for. So that is a major plus. :)

I had the hardest time the other day with a two year old girl who was crying for about 40 minutes at nap time. It actually made me cry, because her crying was so sad. She was crying like she was seeing Satan himself or being tortured by little demons or something. It was the strangest thing and her crying sounded just horrible. L I also cried because I felt powerless to help her. I tried to comfort her but it didn’t seem to work. She just moved here from China so she is a bit disoriented. She is very cute though. :) May God show me how to help her. Amen :)

I am now in the 2 year old room mostly which I really like. They are so much more independent and capable of more, obviously, then the one year olds. They can actually sing songs with me, which is fun. They are just the cutest little things when they are all singing and doing motions to songs.

They seem to be very eager to learn too. Like they always want to look at books and learn new words etc.

I love this age so much! May God give me wisdom and patience with them. I find it to be a very rewarding job and I am enjoying it a lot so far. I also enjoy the challenge. :) But the easy times are nice too. :)

Grace and peace be with you! :)

A Love Poem

from my sweetie.... :)

To Lisa:

I'll never forget the day

I carved your name into my heart and soul;

The day I said forever

And you wept tears of joy

That made my life full and whole.

Forever I had dreamed of this time;

This time of belonging and finding destiny.

I'd gladly give some of those tears of joy

Again and again without restraint or hesitancy.

To see your heart glad threw mountains of painful years

Far away into the sea.

The joy of God shimmering in your eyes

Brought abundant life into our future to be.

It's my prayer to win your heart every day

And gently bring it to the Lord.

I pray to be your warrior

Who dashes your adversities into pieces

With a double edged sword.

I pray to be the vessel God uses

To bring His love into all the hurting places in your life.

You are my stardust of heaven.

My flawless one.

My darling.

My wife.

:)
