I am Blessed

Today, I was on the child/adolescent psychiatry ward. It was very sad. There were so many cases of bipolar, schizophrenic, and suicidal children. It really solidified that the way you are raised and the household you grow up in influences the person you turn out to be. I thank God for the parents I have, the faith they raised me with, and the morals they taught me. I am so blessed and God is so good. I continue to send up prayers for those troubled kids. Have you thanked your parents today? :)

He's HOME!!

Joel is officially in Alaska!! I got a call at 6:30 this morning from the love of my life from Alaska! His cell phone is activated, and I am currently enjoying texting and calling him at my disposal (all the time!!)

After a long year of him being away and in danger, God has protected him and brought him home safely, all appendages intact. This truly is a "Praise God" moment and I am so happy to have him back in the US. I am so blessed, and God is so good and constant.

Thank you Jesus for protecting him!

Home?!

Hey hey! Guess who is coming home?? My favorite person... Joel Thomas! He is officially leaving Iraq tonight - well, tomorrow morning for him... confusing? I know! Sometimes we talk and he calls on a Sunday night for me, but that means it is Monday morning for him. So, does that mean it is like a time continuum? Think about it...

Anyways, I am a happy girl! He is out of harm's way and we are that much closer to the big day! So exciting!
