HE RESTORETH MY SOUL!
Today the Lord gave me a taste of what that phrase means. It had been a rough morning...an unscheduled hostile parent conference, difficult behavior problems at school, my appraisal, and schedule interruptions. I had been trying to get students to understand the concept of elapsed time on a calendar for about 45 minutes when my door opened. In walked my former teaching partner, Nancy. When I saw her, I teared up. Seeing her was such an amazing treat!! She was able to spend the afternoon with me and after school was out, we were just able to sit and chat and enjoy being together. It was just like old times. By the time she left, I realized that my heart was lighter and my spirit was encouraged.
How like our Heavenly Father to provide unexpected springs of refreshing when we need it most! So today, I choose to be thankful for those few precious hours spent in the company of my dear friend. Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good!!!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY
Today is a day for celebration. Thirty one years ago today, Phil and I were married. As I look back and remember that day, I am amazed by all of the blessings I have received along the way.
My husband loves me and shows me that daily, starting with the cup of coffee he brings me each morning. Even on the tough days when things aren't what we want them to be, the love is and always has been there. Our life together has been enriched by our three children, Justin, Kody and Katy. They have brought us joy beyond measure and made our hearts proud by choosing to live lives that honor our Lord Jesus Christ. Blessings also came our way when Tiffany, Corby, and Stu came into our family. Each one of them is so special to us and we love them as our own. Did I mention the grandchildren?? Oh, my goodness...what an amazing time we are having!!Taylor and Brooks own our hearts, and we look so forward to meeting Grayson and any others who may come along.
I am forever grateful to my loving Heavenly Father who has blessed me with these wonderful people in my life. Each moment spent with them fills my heart with joy!
