Ok, ok..... I have a couple minutes right now, baby is sleeping.
Jen, to rest you curious mind, I had a wonderful day yesterday doing things for me. I had some uplifting visits with good friends and a great kick-off to the ladies group I'm leading this year. It was just one of those days when you stop, breathe, relax and enjoy the small things. It felt great......and to top it all off I came home last night to a clean house! Yesterday was also filled with it's share of struggles (as is everyday!) but God was faithful to help me find a way through them.
And for all those curious as to what's been kicking around in my brain lately here it goes. I was listening to the radio a few days back while driving ALL the way back home and the lady that was speaking quoted a verse that spoke to me. All I can remember is that she said it was in proverbs but I'm not sure where. The verse went something like this.....A wise woman builds her house , a foolish woman tears it down. I'm not sure why it spoke so deeply to me but it reminded me that there are so many ways we can tear down our homes, our families.....through actions, words and attitudes. I desire to be a strong, godly woman who builds her home & her family and I have found myself over the past couple of days paying attention my attitudes and words. My constant prayer being that God will help me to re-build where there has been destruction. It sure gave me pause to think earlier this week. Funny how a simple verse can speak volumes sometimes.

Proverbs 14: 1-3
1 The wise woman builds her house,
but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down.
2 He whose walk is upright fears the LORD,
but he whose ways are devious despises him.
3 A fool's talk brings a rod to his back,
but the lips of the wise protect them.
Thanks Shari!
