Yay! Happy Mother's Day! Adam brought home lunch for us today and yesterday we picked up some flowers that the boys "helped" me plant in the flower bed. :) I'm hoping they bloom nice and big to help sell the house when we list it. The picture you see is the flowers that Adisson made at Master's Club. The rose is a yellow chocolate sucker, the blue and purple flower is a cookie with icing, and the pink and purple flower is tissue paper and pipe cleaner that he made himself. :) My first handmade Mother's Day gift that I had no help in making!
Speaking of, I wish I knew what was going on with that. I don't know where we're moving to or when or what Adam's decision is going to be regarding his career. I have since had a little change of heart in the situation and know I'm pretty sure what I would like to do. Since I don't work, however, it's something that needs to be decided logically and not emotionally. I also don't want to talk Adam into feeling how I feel because then I'll forever wonder if he's only doing something because of me and not because it was the best thing to do. I'm definitely going to be praying about it. I got a nudge (or one of those smack on the foreheads like you see in the V8 commercials) from God today. My Grandma emailed me a Mother's Day e-card that was so sweet. She actually sent me two. So nice! I started on her e-card last night and didn't send it until today, but it was a poem and a pic of the boys. :) Anyway, I was emailing her a thank you note for the e-card and telling her how I wished that we were at her house today with the rest of my family getting together to celebrate Mother's Day. And how it's days like today that I'm even sadder that we aren't closer to family. And that I wondered if God was closing so many doors with the Army as a way of letting us know that we should go home already. I sent the email after that and went over to the homeschooling forums I read daily and found someone had posted this verse:
Jeremiah 29:11."For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
And all I'm asking now is for the Lord to show my husband His plans. Adam's not very religious and I know sometimes he has a hard time accepting my answer of "it's a God thing" or "I guess God just didn't have that in the plans for us...." but He's proven to us time and again that He does indeed know what he's doing....we just need to have faith.
I have faith. I just pray Adam finds it, too.
