Thanksgiving

Well it has been awhile since I last posted something, still trying to get it together after having Norah about 9 to 10 weeks ago. It has been a big adjustment, and am kind of sad that I won't be having anymore, due to my health and having 4 c-sections. Anyway, I have come to terms that I am a very morbid person and that I think about death more than I should. I know it is only by God grace that I am still here, I really appreciate that....Thank you GOD! I hear of people everyday that get cancer or some other illness and they leave their children to fend the world with out a Mother or a Father. I am so hoping to see all my kid go and graduate school, get married and have children. Just to be there to encourage them in life.

I haven't always had family around my parents divorced when I was 5, from there my brother and I went from house to house, grandma to grandma, and didn't have a stable home until I was 12 years old. Their was plenty of people to love, but no one to tell me that they did. So when Thanksgiving comes around I love being with my family and having my kids enjoy that, This is the 1st year that I won't spend it with my family and that makes me sad, but I will be sharing with my church family that means alot to me, I guess in a way each of our families are ophans(not being able to celebrate with our earthly families), and it is so great to be adopted and begin to love and do life together.

I guess it all goes back to how God adopts us into his family, and that he chooses us to be his follower, he wants us to love him and be in that relationship with him. I think that says alot about the kind of flawless person God is

Thank you to my Angel's who will be spending Thanksgiving with me and makeing it a wonderful day and maybe a little less lonely and a lot more cheerful!

Family

I recently attended a baby shower for a friend of mine, I have to say I had the most wonderful time. Family and friends, the most important people in our lives and some of the most hurtful relationships we have. Why do we go back for more? I think it states a pretty important thing about God that we get to choose our church members, but we don't get that chance with our family. With church we can even go with out ever becoming members, But God chooses our families. I have heard it said that God gives us a family that is perfectly suited for us, I love the fact that we always love our families no matter what and when anything happens we are their for them(or at least want to be).

Maybe, Our Families are supposed to be an example of how we should care for the church. I will tell you it is awfully lonely in a city or state where you are the only one of your kind(no family around) I am shore hoping God has a plan for me in the Bridge family, and just desire to do the right thing and be the kind of Mom that my kids look up to!

No scripture, Just that I really enjoyed the baby shower and the peace that was with the family and friends. Anyway, Hope you enjoyed reading this
