Hey :)

*Samuel now has his two bottom teeth. My mother-in-law found them Monday night at church and I was excited. (This explained why he was fussy all weekend) They are sharp! He is growing very fast and someone said to Justin at church "he is going to be a tall boy just like his Daddy" :) Love it!

* Next week is National Infertility Awareness Week. As I said previously, I will never forget the hurt, frustration and pain that infertility brings. If you or anyone you know is experiencing infertility tell them to check out this blog http://thepiferfamily.blogspot.com . She is going to talk about infertility every day next week on her blog. She also has a infertility support link where you can find other couples who are on their "infertility journey" (It helps to know that you are not alone)

* We are in revival this week with Jamie Ellington. Justin has been working late every night trying to get the roof on our new house and I have not had time to get the house we are living in now "ready." Long story short- I started having some major anxiety issues at the beginning of the week. When I walked in church last night I heard these words....
God said you're gonna make it
You're going to make through the raging storm
Don't worry over thunder
You're not going under
God said you're gonna make it
You're going to make it for the Master is on board
A choir was singing and I began to cry. Then he preached about being fearful and having anxiety. He gave us three points. We become fearful because...
#1. We forget who He is.
#2. We forget who we are.
#3. We forget what He can do.
I am so thankful that God loves me so much that He would send a message of peace and comfort to my soul. I have been feeling relief all day. He is so good and I could never thank him enough for all He has done. I am glad that I am serving a PERSONAL SAVIOR and that I am A CHILD OF THE KING!!!

Sold our house :(

Justin and I sold our house yesterday and I am very sad. We went to the lawyer's office at 11:00 after a busy weekend of moving and cleaning. Samuel cried when I dropped him off today with the babysitter for the first time, which did not help my nerves. (I now have a fifty minute drive to work) NOT FUN! I am thankful that our house sold and I am hoping I will adjust quickly. Justin is busy working on our new house and hopefully we will be able to move in sometime in June. I will probably still blog some to keep up with Samuel's milestones but I will not be able to add any pictures for the next couple of months :( We do not have the Internet now and I cannot add the pictures at school. Please keep me in your prayers. The last few weeks have been very stressful and I am feeling overwhelmed with all of the changes.

I am on Spring Break this week and I am enjoying every second. Justin gave me a massage for Valentine's Day and I am finally getting to go today. Our babysitter is going to keep Samuel for a couple of hours so I am also going to lunch at one of my favorite places, BLT. Justin is very busy building our new house and I started packing yesterday. I have 4 boxes packed and Justin came home and said "Well, only 200 more to go" :( Hope you have a good week.
