Welcome 2011!!!

us attempting our annual Florida picture
obviously
without much success

my guys were a bit more wiggly
which is odd
considering how old they are
but
we need some more time in front of the camera
a minute just doesn't cut it
though sometimes it does
throwing a family infront
of the lens
you can get some great shots quickly

we are not one of those families I suppose

here is to another year of
challenges

like the 52 week picture challenge
never done one of those and have always wanted to

galactosemia receipes on line on a separate site
a personal blog
and a professional blog
ditching the very outdated website I have
and going with something I can
update often....can we say "HA!!!"

read just the blogs that really inspire me
hugging more
letting go of earthly things
embracing our family motto of the year

"clean up after yourself!"

encouraging more
encouraging more
those around me need it

praying for those babes to find a home in ours
dying to myself everyday

I am not out to be super mom, there is no such thing
and where I miss things and make mistakes
and lose my cool
God fills in the gaps with His grace and mercy
I cannot be all to my kids
but I can give them my all
Jesus has to be their all
He is the only way
the only one

" I am the way
the truth and the life
no one comes to the Father
except through me"
John 14:6

not me
but Him:)

Here is to a year of big things
big changes
stepping out of the boat
to walk on water
a year of big faith
of getting out of my comfort zone
and stepping out

here is to the mockers and judgers

I am not living for you guys
and I don't fear you

I am living for the one and only
living true God



"....if God is for us. Who can be against us?"
Romans 8:31
