We've also endured some sickness, and my sweet Ethan is teething, which is no fun! But I am so grateful for my children and the excitement and joy they bring to my life.
We also celebrated Andy's graduation the first weekend in May. I must admit I loved having my family there, but besides a few friends, it was quite small. Quite a disappointment for me but Andy loved it and that's what matters. I am sooooo proud of my husband for completeing school! He is an amazing man and I can't wait to see where the Lord is going to lead us now that school is done!
Andy was sooo sweet a few weeks ago...I have to brag on him! I had been to my family's home for a week and he surprised me with a dinner date at my favorite restarant, 40 sticky notes declaring his love and admiration vairous aspects of me, his wife, and ending with the sweetest note he'd written while I was gone. I am spoiled by this man of mine! What a jewel I've been given! If only every wife were so loved and adored! Below is my pantry sporting my lovely notes!! Isn't he amazing!
I've struggled alot lately with lonliness and just major downness! It is sooo unlike me and is hard for me to figure out what is up! I know it is not just one thing that has me down, but seemingly every instance that comes my way, I am struggleing with negative emotions. I don't know what the Lord is trying to teach me or wants me to learn, but pray that I will be a willing learner and become the woman He desires me to be! How grateful I am that I can go to Him at anytime, anywhere and that He will hear my cry! How grateful I am for His Word where I can find the encouragement my heart needs. And How marvellous it is to find refuge in Him! If you think of it, pray that I will remember and be reminded of the great blessings I have in HIM!

Hey Amy, Congratulations to you and your husband on his graduation! That takes a lot of work!
And your babies are SO sweet! :)
I DO pray for you, that the Lord would be particularly near to you and that He would meet your deepest needs!
Hi Amy!
Nice to see pictures of your dear family. Congratulations for your husbands graduation.
Your little Ethan is growing so big, what a little doll he is.
As for lonliness, I too am entering a season where my hope and trust must be firmly grounded in Christ, and that my joy and contentment will be in Him alone. The enemy doesn't want us to have such confidence. I will pray for you too as we both abide in Him.
God bless you~
Roberta
oh, and forget to say what a sweet gift your husband gave to you. You are loved!
