I'm Thankful For...day 8

Today I'm thankful that it is Tuesday! Why? Well it's my Bible study day with my mom's group and each week we get together and talk about what we learned in our book 'Created to be His Help Meet'. It means so much to me to be able to get together with other mom's and discuss things like becoming better wives and mothers. It also helps encourage me to not give up on what I'm doing every day here at home and know that it will all be for the glory of God whether I can see that now or not. It also helps encourage me to lead my example in what it means to walk with Christ. To show my husband that the days that I don't accomplish much or just waste my time is what I do alone but the days that I get a whole bunch accomplished and the house is looking great and Monkey actually had real pre-homeschool activities, that is all Christ working through me. I'm not strong enough to do all of it on my own. I'm so grateful to have a group of ladies who except me where I am, encourage me to keep pushing forward, and are there for me when I'm not strong enough to do it on my own. 


Thank you Tuesday for being the day that I get to spend learning from other women and being in God's presence with them!

The League of Incredible Vegetables: Movie Review

Picture borrowed from  Christian Film Database Another movie review! I was so thrilled when I was walking through Best Buy before Christmas and saw this  DVD sitting on the shelf. If you are a boy mom like myself you know that they love super heroes. I struggle to find age appropriated super hero movies for Monkey to watch. He loves Spiderman, Batman, Iron Man, ect. and he has not seen any of the movies/shows that go along with them. Wait...he did watch The Avengers with Daddy one day while I was out. I haven't seen that one so I can't say what I think of it for a 3 year old. Anyway, I love Veggie Tale movies! I think that they do a good job of teaching lessons to kids in a way that they understand and I love the lessons they teach! This one is great because it is about fear and how if you trust God fear can't freeze you. If you have kids, especially boys this movie is great! It helps them get the superheros they want to watch without the bad guys th...

Y3W: I hate drama!

I really consider myself and my life pretty drama free. I try my best to keep people that seek after drama at a distance because I really just don't feel like dealing with it. I have certain family that automatically causes it but you know they are family and there isn't much you can do about it but set up boundaries to not allow it to affect your daily life. Which we do! I love all my extended family but sometimes, seriously, just grow up, stop acting like the world revolves around you and get over it. You children have their own families now! Anyway! After dealing with more family drama (disclaimer: the person I'm talking about would not be reading this so if your family and you are it's not you that I'm complaining about :) then I get a nasty note from a neighbor who is just plain being rude. And I love how they waited until I left before putting the note of the door. I haven't had a car for almost 3 full months and this week my hubby finally got his motorcy...
