Why In His Perfect Timing?

I discovered that someone else purchased the domain for my old blog name so after chatting with a good friend of mine and tossing back and forth different name ideas and changing things up I finally decided on In His Perfect Timing.


Why? I wanted something that spoke what my life means to me. The Heart of a Homemaker was really what I believed my blog was about. What I was writing came right from my heart to your screen. So now what. How else can I explain my life in just a few simple words?

I started thinking about what my life has been like so far. Everything working out in it's own time no matter how things look in the moment. It's not my timing that's working out. If it were it wouldn't have taken 2 1/2 years to conceive Monkey. Hubby wouldn't still be an unbeliever. Monkey would have never needed surgery at 3 years old. Hubby wouldn't have ended up being sick and in the hospital for over a month, especially at the time that it happened. There are so many things that I want to happen or wanted to happen that just didn't work out in my timing. It worked in HIS timing. And HE has made everything work out perfectly.

Yes there are still some changes I wouldn't mind discussing with Him and I do. My prayers on my lonely, homesick days are filled with "Why this right now?" but I trust His timing in everything.

Honestly, since our move to Oklahoma and all the decisions we have been making feel like we are finally walking down the path He has chosen for us. This door has been open for at least 6 years. We have already lived in Oklahoma once before and we were going to stay but then the situation changed and we ran back to where we felt at home.

But we are here! This is our new home and I'm really starting to fall in love with living here. I miss my family and friends but the more I get out, do things and meet people the more I find that this is home. This is where we are meant to be and this is the life we are meant to live. I can't wait to see what else He has planned and what is in His Perfect Timing.

Holiday Traditions?

I'm so excited to be co-hosting with Melissa! I have been a long time reader & finally got around to co-hosting! I can't wait to see all of your holiday traditions & I'm sure add a few to my list too! Holiday Traditions? What are those? I'm not sure we have any set up in our family. We never really had anything that we did every year growing up either. So I'm not surprised that we haven't thought about setting anything up for our kids either. Last year we tried doing the  Three Wise Men Gifts  but I of course bought more than just 3 gifts. So what is the plan this year for holiday traditions in our house? Bass Pro Shop Winter Wonderland to visit Santa Three wise men gifts  One Santa gift plus the stocking Baking cookies at Granny & Great Popa's house Baking cookies at Grandma & Popa's house with cousins & then heading to the local fire department & police station to share with the men & women that keep us safe throug...

Y3W: I'm Not Perfect

I'm not perfect. I think you already know that as no one is perfect on this earth even though sometimes people can look like it on the outside. I do post many things about the good things going on in my life because I would rather talk about those then dread on the bad or negative things. However today I'm going to make sure you know that I'm not perfect by a long shot. Since about last Wednesday (so over a week now)I have been struggling. I haven't been doing great in my alone time in the Word, I haven't been praying like I was, I'm craving foods that I shouldn't and eating them instead of praying about it and have gained a few pounds back, I'm not doing great on the house work and I'm struggling in making the right decisions in my parenting as Monkey is entering into this new independent/I'm not listening stage. I know what has caused this struggle and I have been working on it but I have been doing alone and not letting God help me through...

WEDDING! Part 2: The Day Of

**Warning more Picture overload!** I couldn't help it! WEDDING DAY! (August 6, 2005) On our wedding day I was so excited! I got ready at my parents house and J. and the guys got ready at our house. It was so much fun to get our hair done at a long time friends  hair salon .  After that we headed over to my parents house to start getting ready.    Everyone was busy getting me ready and many people were up my dress trying to get my 'fluff' to stay up so I didn't have to hold my dress us when walking.  My dad was kicked out of the house until I was done. I wanted him to get the whole sh-a-bang when he walked in. This was interesting. I had to climb into the truck but was not allowed to step on the tailgate and I couldn't see my feet. It was so funny! It looks like we were going fast but we really weren't but that's how we got to the park.  THE CEREMONY! After all that hard work to make it so I ...
