Welcome to my new blog! I hope you will enjoy getting to know me as I go through my day to day life. My issues may not be quite what you are facing however, I hope you can learn from me. It's my hope that you will look at life with me and learn how to face life's difficulties with faith in God. I plan to write daily about my life and how I face the various challenges. No matter what happens in life, God is in control and He will have the last work. That is a comfort to me.
I'm 43, married to a minister. My husband pastors a rural church as well as is a prison chaplain. He is very fulfilled in his life and ministry (and very busy). We have three boys. Steve is 13 and is being homeschooled this year. He's a great kid with a calm loving personality. I enjoy his company and talking with him. Our son Sam is 5 years old and has significant special needs. He was born premature and blind. He now has some sight thanks to corneal implants which are experimental. He is nonverbal and developmentally delayed. But Sam is a joy to us. Having him has made me reach deep into my faith and become a much realer person. Shadrach (Shad) is also 5 and is adopted from China. He has a vision impairment that is not correctable in one eye. We feel God lead us to him after dealing with Sam's vision issues. He is a great kid and has quite a personality. I will write in detail about each of the kids in the future and how God has used their lives to change mine.
Well goodbye for now! Sam's vision therapy teacher is here and then we go and do church errands...
