We Fall Down....

Sorry it's been a while since I blogged but I have been filling in at my mother's work for her. With a new baby and a 18 Month old, homeschooling, and every day life challenges some times you just feel like falling down. I am here to tell you there is only one person strong enough to pick you up and that is God. I am doing an amazing study right now on Intimacy with God. Sometimes you need to stop praying for others and work on yourself. I don't mean selfish desires just your walk with the Lord. I am doing this *study with Joyce Meyer it's a great study. I think when you work on your self there is some realizations you come to and you fall down flat on your face. I had a dream last night about falling and in the dream it was a hole that never ended but as I was falling I was shouting to the Lord praises and tears were running down my face. It was not Oh God help me it was how merciful and magnificent he was. God loves this kind of praise.
My life has been like that hole my whole life and I used to say "WHY GOD" Poor me huh. Well now I know I was not shouting the right stuff. It is an eye opener when you fall. When he picks you up and dusts you off you become clean if you do it your self stains remain.
So any way busy we will call it has been getting in the way with family Bible time and schooling so I am trying to pull 16 hours of a day into 9 or 10 it is really hard. Organization to run a busy schedule is the key. I suggests white boards,sticky notes, and reminders on the phone to get every thing in order. This has helped a lot. Also Calendar for meals. I have a lot of affordable *recipes that I have made up. I will share one today it is very yummy. I think I will start a segment on my blog of recipes that are affordable but a crowd pleaser. All my recipes feed a family of 8 so you will need to modify to fit your family's size.
A lot has happened since my last blog my little Laekyn is turning from her back to her stomach and vice versa. She is now grabbing stuff with her left hand so we think she will be left handed like her daddy and brother. Her *hearing test went really well and she passed with flying colors. The doctor has put her on a *soy formula because she is not gaining enough weight it is really mild and working great I can already see she is filling out.
I now have my very own *lap top. I got a new printer that is wireless so that it can print from the two laptops. *Printers are an essential when you home school I was blessed by someone else but they told me the great deal they got on them. I should be able to blog more often now that I have access to my own computer.
The good thing about falling down there is no where to go but up now. Thank you Lord for picking me up and dusting me off. I am ready to start all over again. Remember to always pray and by giving Love you find love. It is the greatest Commandment.
