Happy Almost Spring

OK, today I am officially sick of winter! It was 60 degrees on Monday and now it is below zero again! What is this??? Oh ya, Montana! Gotta love it. I realize I have once again been very delinquent with blogging but most of the time I just don't think I have anything that important to talk about. Today however is your lucky day because I think I have something to say! Ha!

So I got contact lenses yesterday for the first time in like 13 years! I have to admit that I did this because I felt like I looked so OLD in my glasses. I think my eyes are one of my only good physical qualities that I have left and I should show them off instead of hiding behind those frames that aren't comfortable anyway. I have a huge headache from wearing them too long because the people at the eye Dr. didn't give my any instructions like how long to wear them! Good Grief!! Anyway, I am really hoping that they get more comfortable to wear as the days go on.

I have been staying home the last couple of days because my dear friend and Drew-care provider lost her 5 month old nephew to SIDS. She had to fly to Duluth Minnesota to help take care of her family. Please pray for them. I have had the privilege of taking care of her children while she is gone. I also got to have Jacksen over today! Taking care of three four year olds is much harder than being a secretary in an elementary school of 300!

I should give an update about our new house! All the walls are sheet rocked and Bill is starting to tape and mud the walls! After that is all done we will paint and so on and so forth. So we should be moving in by the end of April if all goes well! I am really happy with the progress and throughout this process I have learned so much! I have a tendency to feel completely sad and over whelmed when we don't have money in the bank and my husband is working himself into the ground and I am taking care of the kids by myself and trying to work full time. Go figure! Hence the reason I don't want to build any more homes and I can't wait to move into this one! But through the frustrations Bill and I are stronger in our marriage and have learned a few lessons about how to spend or not spend the money God provides us with. I think learning that we aren't the providers but that God is has been paramount! I am very thankful to God each and every day for my healthy kids and loving husband and now a house that we might not be able to afford when it's all said and done! But I am a very optimistic person and I fully believe that God will continue to provide for us when we need to make our house payments in the future! Thanks God!
