so i realize now after looking at this blog several times in the last few months and thinking i really should write something...writing is not easy. i think for me i have to be in that mindset with no distractions, which is rare in a house with a soon to be 4 year old, and i also have to let people (you few reading this) into my world. scary thought for me sometimes.
my last post was in january and now a quarter of 2009 is gone!! i can't believe my one day at a time mentality has gotten me to the middle of april already. it has been a crazy few months. since january my husband and i have been filling in as youth pastors at our church. we have loved every minute of it, but it was a lot for us to do. i knew it would be a lot, but i didn't realize how much stress it would put on todd. we took 10 students on a retreat in february (hence the picture) and had an amazing time. we hope they had as much fun with us as we had with them the last few months. as of yesterday we are happy (and a little sad) to say that is now someone else's ministry. we love teenagers, but there is not enough time with everything else to do all that is needed for a great youth ministry. we will still be helping out when our new friends (Jason and Jennifer) need us, but it is no longer our responsibility. we are so excited to get to know them better and for luke to have a new friend. (they have a 3 year old boy too)
i am about out of things to say, so i will say this...i am ready to take on what the future has. which the near future probably has a job in it. i have not worked a "real" job in over 4 years, so i am a little nervous about that. i know that i will find the right place to be and that it will be exactly what we need as a family. wish me luck. be back soon.
