Today Baby M returned to school on very limited restrictions. But, he made it through the day and is now at Parent's Night at his school! A long day indeed.
He and I get to spend some one-on-one time next Monday! Thank God for three day holidays!

My feet are hurting again and I'm exhausted, but I'm sure it's just my body reacting to events of late. I'm resting and looking so very forward to Monday! Thank you all for your prayers!
OMG
I have decided to link up to the OMG (One Monthly Goal) to meet other bloggers and have even more initiative to finish my UFO's - at least one a month.
Tada! Here is my OMG! This baby quilt needs two more borders, quilting (which I plan to do myself because of time constraints), binding and a label.
3: My poor husband has been waiting almost 2 years for these pajamas to be hemmed! Surely I can manage that!
4. If I finish Baby M2's afghan, I am rewarding myself with playing with this yarn I've been petting for sooooo long! I want to make this scarf for my only granddaughter, Baby I.
Philippians 1:7 (Part 2)
Whew! A lot has happened since I last posted about
Philippians. While I’m grateful that God
chose to heal Baby M., I was really thinking about my attitude while praying.
Were my prayers thankful?
I was indeed
thankful for the encouragement and prayers of my family, friends and
readers.
Were my prayers joyful?
I was not always
joyful, I was afraid at times.
It is so hard to
completely accept God’s will
before we even know
what it is,
when it is out
of our control,
when it has the
potential to be life or death.
And that's o.k., because He who began a good work in me will complete it. :)
Were my prayers confident?
I was confident
that God was with us, for sure.
In the aftermath
of everything, my emotions are running high.
Great joy.
Great relief.
Great gratitude.
Again, I am realizing life can change on a dime.
Enjoy every second.
Lessons Learned:
1) Oh, God, remind me to listen to praise and worship through the trial!

2) Today I am more thankful, joyful and confident in my Lord and Savior than I was when I first started this study.
3) I have you, my friends, family and readers in whom's shield of faith I can rest in. :)
Dear Friend,
This is my truth.
I loved reading your list, and laughed when I read about your husband's pj bottoms. I rejoice with you over Baby M, not even aware of what the problem was, but seeing God's miracles at work is always a blessing. A comment I was thinking about today kind of goes along with what you said at the end. "Faith in God includes faith in his timing." That hit me like a rock, because I'm always so impatient for what I want to happen. =)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you laughed! I was wondering if to put those pjs in or not, but they are indeed on my to do list! :o Yes! Faith in His timing! I'm learning that one! Thank you for sharing!!
DeleteGood luck with achieving your monthly goal. I find it is best to concentrate on one thing at a time, unfortunately I keep slipping with that one, but September is a new month so I'll try again.

DeleteThat is a sweet baby quilt you have chosen as your goal, I look forward to seeing the quilting! Thank you so much for linking up, I sure hope it helps with your goals, especially your poor husband's loungers ;)
ReplyDeleteHello Heidi!
ReplyDeletePlease forgive me for the late posting and response! I was in Albuquerque for the 2016 Cancer Retreat! Thank you for your kind comments on the baby quilt! My daughter quilted it for me and I'm currently working on the binding. Will post about it soon! Yes, my poor husband loungers.... :) It's so funny, right? :) Blessings!
