False Labor & Star Wars

Yesterday morning at 7am, after a long night of contractions, Nate & I spent 5 hours at the hospital. I had a nice time watching movies. Ha! 35 weeks & this baby needs to stay in a little longer. Something that perplexes me is no matter how many kids I have delivered I still second guess if I’m actually in labor. So, this time, again, I’m asking Jesus to make it very clear. Like, maybe my water could break?! Hehe!

After the hospital we enjoyed the new Star Wars movie and Arby’s and some errands!

Now, we wait expectantly for baby to join us! He’ll come on time, when he’s ready! We’re excited for his arrival!

I can learn alot from other people 5. Listening is the best form of counseling...my response can be prayer! As the Lord began to challenge me with this, I began asking to help me with questions to ask people...

Not only did she ask me about their ages, but she also asked what each of their personalities were like. I had to really think about that question. She was genuinely interested in me and it felt amazing! This is going to take alot of effort, but through the power of the Holy Spirit it can be done! I am trusting that this will change my relationships, even with my...

The B-I-B-L-E Yes That's the Book For Me!

Yesterday, after much bickering and breaking up fights I said to the kids, "We really need to sit down and read our Bible together. We need to hear from the Lord!" The sounds that followed ripped me to the core..."Awww!" "Do we have to?" "I don't like reading the Bible!" I wanted to scream in anger about how they never seem to make those sounds when we sit down to watch a movie, but I didn't, I just started reading. Zeke was the only one scrambling to get to my lap and hear the story. Afterwards, I let the kids go play and I just sat in the Popasan chair feeling dejected, like a terrible mother. "Lord, you promised to pour out your Spirit on my children! What is happening? I am failing you...failing them! You have to do something" I brought them all back into the sun room for a light lecture. Haha...yeah, if that's possible! "Guys, I have one main job as a mother and that is to teach you the Word of God....
