Goodness Gracious!!!!

Goodness gracious ladies!!! Again, here we go with the "I know it has been too long speech" But really I am honestly wanting to get back to "blogging":):) I know there for a season God used the blogging in a tremendous way for me....I have to say so much has changed and so much is still being pruned and molded in my life.....but I am so blessed.....
He really does turn broken into beautiful....not too sound cheesy but after living it out the last year and a half, I can say by experience He does....The song by Britt Nicole, Have your Way is amazing, please you tube it, I am not that experienced to post it on here yet!
So here we are in 2010, a new beginning! Really I feel like I have been full circle lately...God has blessed me with a restored marriage, a better understanding of life and Him in general, a new love for my husband, an opportunity to homeschool again, which I am loving by the way......and I am still learning, yes I am....especially to relax and enjoy what I have and not be anxiously awaiting for something to go wrong....This I must say is where God is dealing with me the most lately, relaxing and enjoying the beautiful that He has given me.
So currently I am in North Carolina....praying for God to open the door to get closer to IN....it has gotten harder to be away from family for both Tony and I....we are both awaiting something new....there is a potential job offer in TN, which puts us under 7 hours from "home" So we will see.....
I am back into the swing of things this quarter of homeschooling my four amazing children, they never cease to amaze me....we are now in it for the long haul, God willing......After week one, surviving an extended vacation/death of my grandfather, the stomach flu, which I unbelievably surpassed! We made it through and are gearing up for week two!!! A few changes to the math curriculum for the boys, they are so bright it is scary! They will surpass me! But honestly enjoying it and knowing that this is my true calling as a mother.....For so long I felt I was supposed to homeschool, then I went through so many conflicting emotions/struggles, feeling that I wanted to work....well after being "out there" God has brought me back to my first love, teaching....but teaching my own and having the privelige to do so and also having an amazing husband who supports me unconditionally......
So for now that is where I am at....I really am hoping to continue on here, no promises just dedication.......so be blessed.....:):)
