Party!

Today the kids and I had a Halloween party, not anything big but we walked to my place and changed into costumes, made some decerations, colored pumpkins on paper, had snacks. It was alot of fun, I know its not like back in the states but it was good enough for me. :) The time seems to be drawing closer and closer that I return home, there are alot of mixed feelings in my heart. Like I was told by a good friend back at home I will fall in love with being here, and I have, I will miss the kids greatly and the family of friends I have made around me. But I know God is preparing me to come home and has many great and wonderful things instore for me I am suuuper excited. Sigh, it has been a long week but also ended pretty quickly. I am living each day to the fullest as I can beacause I know soon this will all just be a memory. :)

The Kids, The Gym, and other things.

The monster game, that is what we play. I run around tickling and catching them. They have so much laughter and sillyness to get out that the monster game is the best to satify there hyperness. We played music, sang worship songs together and danced around. It was wonderful fun! I have a wall of pictures that the kids and I have drawn, soon the wall will be covered completly and I will have to start putting pictures up on my other walls. :) They are a blessing to me and it seems soo soon that I will be leaving them. I will miss them.

Im sore, three nights a week we go and work out (me and my roommates) tonight we had a dance party with everyone at the end of all our sweating. It was good, but I know Im going to be feeling it tomorrow. Tonight we are going to relax and watch a movie :) I cant belive how blessed I am to have such wonderful roommates who do put up with alot of my crazyness. (Im sure some of you know what Im talking about.. maybe all)

The other things. I have come to realize that my life is going to change so much when I get back, It has already changed, but even more so the way I live my life, and everything... just going to be diffrent. I know its going to be a little crazy once I get back, wedding plans around christmas time. >.< mmmmmcrazy. But God is good! And he is rocking my world every day! He is my sustainer, He completes my life, is my life, He is the only one who makes sense of my life. He is the everything I search for, He loves me like no one ever could. He blesses me and keeps me safe, cares for me, and forgives my silly mistakes. I can not understand, and maybe ill just leave it at that He gave his sons life, and now I live mine for His glory!

Looking out the window

Looking out my window
More then 9 tall trees
houses right across
kids playing in the street
a diffrent world
Ive yet to explore.
I shouldnt just wonder
but take the step out my front door.

But sometimes its the hardest thing
Just walking down the street

but God has put me in this place
to bless those I know
so instead wasting my time
ill stop looking out the window.

I made

Swedish Pancakes for the kids. I got up at 530 to start workin on them, the kids wake up at 630!! but it was worth it, the oldest woke up early around 545 and helped me make the batter. :) she loves to cook and make things. The rest of the day was pretty chill, they played lots of fun games outside with eachother and we ended up walking to my house to play there. My roommate if I didnt say before was amazing and came the other night and just was there as a second pair of eyes and hands. It was a blessing to have her help!! not sure if you can see the time I write this, but its clear its around 11 your time, meaning its 6something my time.... I should probably go back to sleep :)

One Night, Three Kids!

Tonight has been fun, I watched the kids from 3 in the afternoon till... well tomorrow afternoon sometime. There parents have gone out on an early honeymoon :) and Im spending the night with the kids. Im used to the night time part of it all, I give them dinner and put them to bed, normal babysitting gig. But in the morning I will be getting up at 530 to get a special breakfast of swedish pancakes going so I can have the food ready for when they wake up at 630. This should be a good run :) Im enjoying the extra time with the kids and Im excited for the fun day awaiting us ahead. Im off to clean up the heap of dishes, and the massive fort in the living room! And Praise the Lord for all of it and how wonderful these kids are!

Good

Hi
Praise the Lord for what he has done in the last couple weeks in my life, I find myself really focused on the day to day things. I know at this time my return seems nearer then ever but still far enough away I have to keep my mind on the things here. And Praise the Lord!!! He has been so good! somtimes I think we miss that, God is good!! was sick with a virus sunday/monday but God is still sooo good! The kids where a little emotional couple of the days this week, but God is still sooo good! I have to stop myself sometimes before I get upset at something and just say the word in my head "good" and then "God" then my mind explodes to think GOD IS BETTER THEN GOOD! My life is short and the best I can do with it is do all I can to give him the Glory forever and ever! AMEN!

God is good.
