One Heck of A Honey

I have been meaning to talk to you all about someone. This someone is my main man, my honey, my sweetie!
He is one amazing man. And a lot of you would agree. He loves God. He cares for people that most people would never take the time to get to know. He is so friendly, kind, giving, loving, and puts pretty much everyone else before himself!
He is an amazing husband. He takes time to listen, and really cares about what is going on in my life. He makes sure that he is leading me closer to God. He reminds me many times how special I am to him. He works so hard so that I can stay home and be with Zeke. I don't think I can say enough to express what a wonderful man he really is.
He is an amazing dad. He loves to spend time with his "bug". He takes time to feed him almost every morning and considers this their "special" time. He reads to Zeke about Jesus, always telling him about the truth of life. He loves to take Zeke for walks and get out and about with him, and me. There is nothing better than seeing the look on Zeke's face than when his daddy walks through the door after being at work all day.
He is an amazing photographer. This is a recent hobby for him, and quickly turning into more. I will stop going on and on and let the pictures do the talking.

All Over the Place

Well! If you do read my blog-many apologies for not updating in a long while:)! I have been all over the place- physically and mentally!!

All of the siblings between my mom and step-dad gathered together to celebrate my grandpa's 90th birthday!! Wowsers- some cupcake pics to come from the party (as soon as my sister emails them to me!). Anyhow, we had such a great time honoring this great man! He is such a hard worker-still working part-time-and a gentle and loving man. It was really great to be with family, esp. those that live far away.

Mentally I am all over the place too! I have just finished "weening" Zeke. Wow-I never knew how far out of whack my hormones were going to be. And to top it off we just moved into a new place, only a few buildings down, but a ton of work none the less! Oh and did I mention Zeke is teething-never any fun-for he or I!

So my mind is all over the place. My highs are high and my lows are really low. I have been begging Jesus to be my strength. I am finding my bearings in Him. It is not easy. I have to return to Him many times, a humbling thing for someone who tries to be so self-reliant. I am so glad that Jesus' grace is sufficient for me, I am so glad that when I am weak He is strong. No matter how I "feel".

Sweet Jesus-please be my strength today. Help me to trust You, Your help, and Your words. Help me to rest in You as I go about my day today. Please be my peace and help me keep my eyes fixed on You. You are so good to me. Teach me in these times. I love you so very much. Amen.

2 Samuel 22:31 This God— his way is perfect; the word of the LORD proves true; He is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.

Psalm 18:2 The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

Psalm 18:30 This God—his way is perfect; the word of the LORD proves true; He is a shield for all those who take refuge in him.

Psalm 31:2 Incline your ear to me; rescue me speedily! Be a rock of refuge for me, a strong fortress to save me!

Psalm 34:8 Oh, taste and see that the LORD is good! Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him!
