Life

• I stink at blogging.  
• I have blogs to post, I just need to finish them. 
• I lost the cord for my camera, and have been waiting on the new one to come in for weeks.
• Which is no excuse, I could post the blogs and add the pictures later.  
• Or even go out of order. 
• Life is hectic. 
• Our house is still for sale. 
• And has barely shown. 
• Though it seems to show at the most crazy times.
• Not sure there is ever a not crazy time at our house.
• The house we want to buy is getting ready to go up for sale. 
• Which makes us wonder if it is a sign. 
• A sign for what? Well, that could go in many ways. 
• Mark has been traveling to much for work.
• But he has a job. 
• I had some not fun virus while he was gone, migraines for days. 
• Which I have now passed on to Sawyer. 
• So thankful for Makenna, who is able to run this house when I was down. 
• Working on our China trip for this summer.
• Meaning working on raising the funds. Besides planning a trip. 
• Took Makenna to Revolve, GREAT time and more details about it.  I hope. 
• If I ever get back to blogging again. 
• I am teaching the young married girls at church.  Biblical Womanhood. 
• I think I am learning more than I am teaching.
• And being very convicted about what roles a Christian wife plays in marriage. 
• Have taken up "couponing".  
• I have a coupon binder that weighs almost as much as a child. 
• It is a TON of work. 
• But I am saving a ton of money. 
• It is almost like a game, what deals can I get this week?
• My brother is still in China.  
• He is doing well. 
• VERY well! ;-) 
• The little girls have not been in trouble at school in a very long time.  
• That is a shocker. 
• Mavery has actually been doing alot better lately.  
• By saying this the rest of my week is probably going to stink.  
• This month we will celebrate Chinese New Year.  
• And Marks birthday. 
• His request? A weekend away with me! 
• I have been studying about the Sabbath.  And what it means. 
• Among many things. 
• God is stirring something in me. 
• My prayer has been that He would make me uncomfortable. 
• I think I should instead pray, please just email me.  
• With directions for whatever I am supposed to be doing. 
• I am taking Bod for God at our church. 
• I am pretty sure I have gained rather than lost weight.  
• But I do like the class.  And agree with the ideas.  
• I have actually lost 10 pounds, but need to get more serious. 
• Makenna is working her tail off to earn money for our trip.  
• I am so proud of her. 
• I can't wait to be back in China, holding me some babies!
• I have had an ache for the orphans lately that won't go away. 
• And have a hard time understanding why more people don't share that. 
• Did you know that getting rid of orphans is the ONE thing in this world we COULD change?
• If more would just step up and adopt. 
• I sometimes wonder why God could not have just made me think about easy things.
• Easy?  What is easy?
• Well, it might have been a random blog, but it is a blog!
