Well Today is NOT a good Day!

I got to work about an hour and a half today. I was Fired this morning! I couldn't believe it! I am so angry. I have really worked hard at this job and I have been there since June. I just couldn't believe that because I forgot to take the deposit to the bank one day that I got fired. I don't know how I 'm going to find another job but I know that God will provide.

I need your prayers! If anyone has any scripture about God's provision please feel free to post them, I need the encouragement!

God Bless you all and have a good weekend.

Her 17th Birthday!

I still can't believe that Holly Elise is 17 today! She is maturing so quickly and she has grown so much since coming to live with us. The thing that I found neat about Elise's birthday being today is that she shares it with my Aunt Margie and My cousin Tyne! Happy Birthday to you All!

I want to tell you a little about how I feel about Miss Elise.

I know that We are just her gaurdians but I have grown so attached to her, I love her as if she were my daughter! I'll tell you another thing, I couldn't ask for a better mother/ daughter relationship. I had asked God for a daughter that I could have an open loving relationship with and He gave me Holly.
Praise God for loving me enough to see the desire of my heart and granting me part of that prayer.
As far as the adoption goes we are still Waiting! I am ready for the phone to ring with the news that we have been matched. It will be a wonderful day!
I have been praying and I feel that our child might be a little 5year old boy who is a loving soul and needs a loving mommy and daddy.

I Thank Jesus that I am going to get the chance to be somebody's mommy!

. "My God shall supply all your (my) need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus" (Philippians 4:19) "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you (me)" (Matthew 6:33). (Emphasis is mine).

Never again will I confess curses or bad luck, for "Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us...that the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith" (Galatians 3:13-14).

Lovely Time!

Yesterday we had an early birthday party for Holly Elise, she will be 17 on Oct. 16th . We went to my Grandparents house and grilled hamburgers and my Aunt's best friend made Elise the nicest Cake.
She even said she would even make the cake for our placement party and our finalization party.

I can't wait for either! I am still really looking forward to becoming a mother. Ernie and I were talking earlier today about how he wants boys and I want girls. It was rather funny. He thinks boys are easier because they are not as emotional as girls! I told him that God made us more emotional for a reason. Because God needed someone to find compassion and love. With out the emotional sex there would be no men!

It was a fun debate, and we always wind up seeing the path God has put us on.
It has been raining most of the day and we have just enjoyed spending the day together and praying that the Lord will keep my peice of junk little van running until we can come up with the money to get a newer one, or a car. With winter coming on I probably need to get a front wheel drive car so that I don't have to worry about travel in Oklahoma's messed up weather!

I Think About Him/Her all the time.

I think about who my child will be. About how old he or she will be. I wonder if they will love me as easily as I am sure I will love them. To tell you the truth I don't even know who my children are but I already love them so much that I would do anything for them.
I am so excited about being a mother and I can hardly wait to find out who my child(ren) are that it is really not even funny.


Well on an totally unrelated note. Today is my 6th wedding anniversary. Ernie and I spent the night lastnight at Embassy Suites Hotel. It was perfect. We had a nice dinner and enjoyed the alone time. And because I mentioned that it was our anniversary when I reserved the room they upgraded our room for free!

We really had a good time. Checked out at noon and came home to a chattering 16 year old who can't wait to turn 17 on Oct 16th.
We are planning a couple of different things for her birthday and She will enjoy them I am sure.

Well enough for today .... May God continue to bless you and keep you.

Please don't forget to pray for my growing family!


Love, ~me~
