It is all coming together.  Funny isn't it!? I despair over how things aren't going the way I need them to go for so long, then in the space of a couple months, everything changes and things are going exactly how I want them to.  Prayer works in it's own time frame.  I am so happy and thankful for the guidance and protection that my family receives from our Heavenly Father.

We will be moving this weekend into a two bedroom apartment.  When a three bedroom becomes available we will move into it, but for the time being, this is a great solution.

On top of all these great things that are happening for us, Heath is having a medical problem (not serious--but annoying and painful) that in all my years of knowing him, and in his life in general he has never had.  The funny thing is that this problem is something that I have experienced personally many many times.  The wonderful thing (I say this sort of in jest) is that now Heath KNOWS that I am not making up the discomfort and aggravation!  He knows what it feels like too!  YES!

It reminds me of when I was pregnant with Kalyn.  I was so uncomfortable, and experienced quite a bit of cramping and discomfort throughout the pregnancy.  Heath wasn't heartless, but he wasn't sympathetic either.  I prayed that he would understand that I wasn't exaggerating my symptoms, and that it wasn't a picnic.  Well...about a month before Kalyn was born, Heath got a mysterious (illness?) something in his abdomen.  He was writhing with discomfort and unhappiness.  He told me that if this was anything like what I had been experiencing, he was sorry.  I was vindicated, and that is another example of how Heavenly Father has a sense of humor, sense of justice, and that He answers prayers!  BTW, we never figured out why Heath was sick or what he had!

One time I prayed that my roommate would stop snoring so I could sleep. A moment later, her fan fell off the shelf, almost hit her on the head, and crashed to the floor. She didn't really wake up, but she did stop snoring!
And that is really funny about the Speedo man. I think I'd keep my kids inside too!
And I'm REALLY looking forward to your input on the new blog. Thanks for your comment and support!
