Happy Happy Thursday!!

Hello everyone.  Happy Thursday to all.  

This week is a very unique week because I am participating in a prayer and fast for my church, The Champion Center of Las Vegas.  Each year, corporately as a church, we come together by praying and fasting for 40 days.  I choose to pray and fast, from flour and sugar, starting 9/19/11 and ending 10/28/11.  The biggest challenge has been the slight headache and hunger. I know this to shall pass, with each day being easier than the day before. 
The amazing opportunity has been praying that the Lord feeds my spirit the way my stomach wants to be feed. I have also been praying for a vision for my life, my husband, my family, my church, and for my creativity.  I am just so excited to see what God has instore!!

Also this weekend my kids and I ventured off to one of our close friend's house, Micheals!!  my oldest Isiah sat outside the store and read his book he was so interested in, while Elijah, Josiah, and I went into the store. Micheals was offering a free birthday card make and take.  Here is Elijah's:

Here is mine:

Thank you again for letting me share. Gift from above -

It has been awhile!! Happy Monday!!

Hello everyone. Yes, it has been awhile.  Hope everyone is having a bless day.  A lot has gone on since July 2011.  Here are some highlights!!

The biggest bitter/sweet highlight has been that SCHOOL IS BACK IN!! I miss my two older boys while they are attending school, but I have time to focus on my purpose in life and what God has in store for me.  I also get to spend more one on one time with my youngest son and to be CREATIVE!!  :)
