Memory Verse

Sarah is hosting a Memory Verse Wednesday. Each week she post a new memory verse. This is something that I really need to do but dont have the will power and determination to do it on my own. So maybe with other people joining in I can keep it up and actually do it.

Here is this weeks Verse....

Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, andlean not on your own understanding.

In all your ways acknowledge Him,and He will make your paths straight.

Sunlight and Shadows...

This is a song that we sang last night at Bible Study. Every once in a while, we will have singing instead of studying. It made me think of alot of people including myself and I just wanted to share the words with you..

"Following Storm Clouds, cometh the sunlight, Following heartaches, cometh sweet peace;
So in our lives oft-times when in trouble, Jesus is waiting to give us release. "

" Brooding o'er sorrow stealeth our comfort, All will be well, for Gods way is best;
Chastened and humble we see His glory, Portrayed by whom was given the test"

" Following earth life cometh the crowning, Into Gods kingdonm after a while;
Seeing the sunlight gleaming forever, shine from our Saviors welcoming smile."

Chorus
Heartaches will come and yet theres a blessing, After each heartache if we but knew. Christ is behind the darkest of stormclouds, Sunlight will come if to Him were true...

As we sang that, I sat there thinking how it fit my life so well at times....If only I would focus on him, Sunlight would come from the clouds.

Big Prayer Request

I got word today of something that happened and I am still in shock. An old friend of mine from Church camp that I lost touch with over the years...and then got to see again this summer. Anyway, her husband was serving in Iraq. He has been injured. I dont know all the details, I do know (and family please correct me if I am wrong, cause I know some of you read this blog) he lost both of his legs all the way up to his groin area. He is fine otherwise as far as i know. they are expecting to get him to the states friday but he will have to stay in Washington DC for 2-3 months..

They have 2 kids..2&1 will be 3&2 in October I think.

Please pray for them...If they know that people are praying maybe it will help..

Sarah if you are reading this, I am prayin for you and know that I am here if you need anything. I dont know what I can do besides pray and be here so you will have to tell me if there is something else.

Love and Prayers

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KYLIE

I know this is a day late but seeing as yesterday was so hectic. Four years ago, I was anxiously awaiting the birth of my very first baby. I was so excited. I had everything ready, down to my plan for what I was going to do when I went into labor. You surprised me. Your due date was September 7th-16th. the ultra sound said one thing, the doctor said another. Your Daddy was working for his self at the time much like he always has but he was at a point where he didnt have to work for a couple of weeks, so he decided to stay home and wait with me because I had been having alot of pains. It was a Wednesday morning. We had decided the day before that Daddy was going to go back to work that morning but we stayed up late watching movies and eating popcorn and pickles....yuck.. Anyway, about 8:30 we woke up and Daddy was getting ready to go to work and my water broke. There went my plan out the window. I had no idea what to do. My mom was four hours away, Your daddys mom was still asleep (love ya mom) and I was scared. Every one said that when your water broke you were in active labor....hmmmm. Anyway, we were surprised at the hospital because your aunt ducky was there waiting for us and your granny wilma was on her way. She sat with me until they made her leave when you were born. she did not leave my side once. I missed that with Alaina and Jason.

You took your sweet time getting here and after ward, I was so happy and so relieved that you were okay. You had such a sweet face and such a stubborn attitude. You were nothing like I expected. You screamed everytime someone put you down and you refused to cooperate with anything. But I still loved you. I still love you today, four years later you are just as stubborn and just as uncooperative. You push me to my limits and then push them further. And still I love you. Through all the stubbornness and the pushing, you light up my life with your love and laughter. You can find humor in anything but at the same time, when something is sad, you are very serious and very comforting.

I prayed before you were born that I could raise kids that would obey the Gospel and stay in Church and be Christians. I see and hear everyday when you remind me of things that God would not like or God would like that I am doing that. You are a very wonderful blessing and you are one of the lights of mine and your daddys life. I am so glad God gave you to me and that you threw my perfect plan out the window. It has been an adventure and a joy and I am sure it will be for years to come if God sees fit. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

I know we dont always get along but you know what, it is because we are so much alike. bot stubborn, rebellous, and ownry. But we are also full of love and compassion.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Kylie, and menu

First of all, Kylie is okay. She has a bad bladder infection. She did have to have blood work and an abdominal ct scan because the urinalysis wasnt showing that bad of an infection and they wanted to rule out apendicitis....because she was running 104 temp.. It is unusual to run that high of a temp with a bladder infection. So. It was a fun 3 hours at the doctors office.

THANK YOU GRANNY for watching Alaina and Jason. It was so much less stressful to not have to keep up with them and do this stuff.

THANK YOU AUNT DUCKY for the food. (my sweet sister n law (sister) fed us last night because she is so sweet.....

So onto my menu....

I had a roast in the crockpot yesterday. I am going to shred it and make Bar b Que out of it for Bible study tommorow night. It is sandwich night so I am taking Bar b Que sandwiches.


Tonight we are having Grilled Steak and Heart stopping potatoes and green beans.

Thursday night, we are having Chicken Fried Steak, Mashed potatoes, gravy, fried squash, brownies.

Friday-Pizza from Wal-Mart.(The girls love those 9.00 Meat lovers Pizzas you get in the deli and it only takes one to feed all of us. )

Saturday (may be on our way to see my family so dont know ) if we arent we will have Pork Loin, Salad, Garlic Bread, and some other vegetable.

Sunday (if not seeing my family) we will have Salad for lunch (cause it is quick and easy and we can take a nap afterwards) and Eggs, Sausage, Biscuits and Gravy for supper.

Not bad. I got most of the meat on the angel food program. The Chicken Fried Steak package has enough in it for probably 2 meals, the pork loin is enough for 2 meals, I also got a turkey roast, meatballs, and lots of other goodies.

Thank you to everyone who wished Kylie well. I am so glad it was just a bladder infection. I hate it when they are sick and there is nothing you can do to comfort them.

For the rest of today, we are going to go see granny, go to the library, come home take naps, do laundry, pick up the house (it is pretty much clean, all we really have to do anymore is pick up and deep clean. ) For this week, I will be workin on the office and doing inventory for the business. Next week, it will be the kitchen.

Also for those who are a positive influence on our blogging world. Once you've been awarded please pass it on to others who you feel are deserving of this award."

I dont really have five people to give this award too. I havent been making new blogging friends lately. Like I told my sister. It is a busy season in my life. I do have a couple of people who are very deserving of this award. Besides my sister and all the wonderful people who have already recieved it. If you have already recieved it and I just didnt notice it. Well just think of yourself as doubly nice.

Happy Momma because she always says what she honestly thinks but at the same time is very nice and helpful.

Amber for her helpfulness and thoughtfulness and because you inspire me with the homeschooling stuff.

Jenn even though I know my sister gave you this award, you very much deserve it for your truthfulness about your depression.

Bad weekend

We had a bad wekend in ways. Kylie had her birthday party Saturday night...It went well. Thank you to everyone.

Alaina woke up about 5 Sunday morning vomiting. Just once though. I think she had too much Ice Cream. She does not do well with a lot of dairy and I purposely gave her very little Ice cream and cake but apparently she ended up with more. Anyway, on the way to Church, Kylie started saying she didnt feel good. I figured it was just tired. so she took a nap. She didnt eat any lunch after church and we took a nap. She woke up from her nap and was burning up with fever. Gave her some motrin, asked her where she hurt, her throat and her belly and her chest. She slept. We ate supper...not kylie. She woke up burning up again. I took her temp...under the arm...and the themometer read 103.2 which, if they do it like they used to, it was 104.2. Scared me..so we took her to the emergency room where she slept in a chair for 3 hours and they still had not seen her. They finally got an empty room and they called in someone who had just walked in the door. We left....been poking motrin and tylenol down her to keep her fever down and am taking her to the doc today at 3:30

What was really bad was there was another little girl in there who was just as red as could be and you could tell she felt bad...they left too. they were there for the same amount of time. I seen the vehicle they left in and this morning when paul was leaving for work, i just happened to look down the road and that same vehicle is sitting at a neighbors house about 5 houses down. I never pay attention to the neighbors, we live where nobody bothers anybody else. Its nice. But just to think that we were all there at the same time last night and both had sick little girls. That is strange...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HONEY!!!!!!!!!!!

MY DEAR DARLING WONDERFUL HUSBAND TURNED 40 TODAY.......YES THAT IS RIGHT 40......

I just wanted to take the time to tell him that I do love him very much. I know it doesnt always seem like I appreciate him but he is so wonderful. We have been married for five (long) just kidding honey wonderful years and he has been the greatest. Through my pregnancies, ( morning sickness, grouchiness, aches, labor, post partum.) Through my (mid life crisis ) yes in my twenties. He helps me so much around the house and he shouldnt even lift a finger because he works all day. Yes I know I stay home and take care of kids..that is my job and the house is mine...God said so...He did not say for the husband to provide for his family and keep the house and raise the kids, he told us women to do that.

He is also a wonderful father. even at fourty, he still has so much love and compassion to give to his kids. He is their rock, the one they turn too when mom gets grouchy and the one that is always there for all of us.

I think I had better stop now because I am crying and besides, he might get conceited...(I love you Honey

Love Your Wife,

Crystal

The kids said Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!

Shelter for the Spirit

My wonderful mother in law (hi mom) loaned me a book that I have been reading it is called
Shelter for the Spirit. Wonderful book, wonderful. I am only like 4 chapters into it but I love it and cannot quit reading it. I am going to take some notes on it and share them when I finish it. If I come across something that I dont like, I will let you know.

Just had to share it.

Still Here

i am still here. I just have not felt much like blogging this week. Just in a slump. I will get over it.

I have been busy with the kids. We have been doing all kinds of crafts and playing outside with all the cool weather and going to the park.

We went the other day and fed the ducks. They came all the way up on the picnic benches with us to eat. The girls werent to crazy about that. They wanted them down.

I have had an adventurous week with Alaina. She has been doing all kinds of stuff. For instance, the other day. Kylie usually unloads the dishwasher for me and puts up what she can reach. I had her doing that while I put Jason down for his nap. We have started letting him cry it out and I went to check on him and he had a dirty so I changed him, put him back down and come back to the kitchen. Well Alaina my lovely two year was standing at the entry to the kitchen with a big grin on her face. She said "I did it momma I did it....." Oh no.....she had put all the dirty dishes she could find and reach off the cabinets in the dishwasher with the clean ones that Kylie could not put up. Then.......she poured my whole new box of powdered dish detergent in and around the place where it is supposed to go..........What do you do but very calmly tell her that she shouldnt do that and clean it up. Yes I got on her and Yes she now understands that she shouldnt touch the dish detergent or the dishwasher with out mommy telling her.

Anyway, I have several things on my mind and will post about them soon but not today.

Love and Prayers

Catching up.

Just catching up..

We had an okay evening thursday. The girls werent too bad and we got alot done. Yesterday paul didnt have to go to work until noon so we kinda hung out with him and my mother in law came over and played with the kids for a while. Then they took naps and daddy came home.

We got to eat out last night. We dont do that very often but we had to run an errand and decided to just sit down and enjoy not having to cook for one night.

Today, I have some errands to run this morning......and it is raining. and then after lunch and naps I get to go grocery shopping and take the kids to see daddy at work. HE wants to show off his babies.

Love and Prayers

Quiet, Peaceful, Sleep

I am sitting here in the peace and absolute quiet of my house. The only noises are the hum of the air conditioner and the snores of my three sleeping angels.

It has been a rough morning. Jason is not feeling good. We got a new riding lawn mower (when you have 1 1/4 acres to mow you need one.) And with paul working late, i have been mowing the yard with Jason while the girls play in the backyard. His allergies do not like it....but what do you do other than let your yard get out of control....

Kylie does not feel good..she says her chest hurts. I am guessing a summer cold and since she is not running fever, the doctor will not see her.

Alaina is being ownry....she is into everything and has hit the no nap time stage..

I am gong to enjoy this peace and quiet while i straighten up the office...

By the way, this is my 111th post......kinda cool huh...

Love and Prayers

Well, we have started trying to get on a schedule for our school year. But.....they stayed up late last night watching a movie with daddy so I am letting them sleep late.

My house is clean to the point that all I have to do is upkeep and some deep cleaning now and then. You know the days when you really need to clean that kitchen and then the days when you just need to declutter an area...well today is the office and my checkbook.. they are both in a mess.

Schoolwork has been going okay. I was going to try and do Teach Your Child To Read in 100 Easy Lessons With Kylie but She looked at it and told me it wasnt colorful enough for her to do....What? When does a four year old decide that? So we are still doing crafts and play and she is still bored and done in five minutes. I am going to try and order a curriculum to start with in January, which means that our school year will be off from everyone eleses but oh well, when have we been like everyone else?

I will try and post more on our schedule when we get all the kinks worked out.

Sorry for the errors I am typing this one handed...:)

Yesterday.

Okay, My verse of the week says that " tribulations worketh patience." Then I guess yesterday ought to have worked alot of patience for me....

Kylie was done with her lesson in about 5 minutes....I am not kidding...and I did not have anything else planned for her to do so I had to spend the rest of the day either coming up with something for her to do or if I went to do something that I needed done (like switching the laundry,) I would come back and find her making a mess somewhere and then i would have to clean it up.... I did not get very much done at all .........AND I Have no patience.......

Please pray for me that I will gain patience with my daughter.. When I was younger, everyone said I had the patience of Job...I kept six babies under two in a daycare and loved every minute of it.. I dont know where all that patience went but I am a little tired of being grouchy..

Things to do This evening.

Chruch Dinners

We had a wonderful little get together at the park Friday night. It was actually a birthday party for a boy at church...He turned 6. It was fun.. We did not get to fish like we planned but maybe one night this week I can take the girls and go.

We had hotdogs and hamburgers and cake and ice cream. and we visited and we talked and the kids played and we had lots of fun.

Today after Church, we had sandwiches and stuff and visited for a little while. We were supposed to go put in som electric at the building site but Rick said he could take care of it all by himself so we came on home. They are supposed to be starting our building soon. Yay......

Anyway, Do you have dinners at your church? What do you usually do for them and what do the kids usually do?

I am just interested in all of this....

Kylie and Homeschooling

I have a few questions for those of you that read my blog...

To start with, Kylie is so frustrating sometimes. I mean, she knows her ABC's, she just doesnt want to sing it right most of the time. If she is singing it and she says the wrong letter, you can look at her and she will sullenly say the right one. Ughhhhh....

Then, she knows what most of them look like but when you ask her what that letter is, she will say the wrong one and keep saying it until you get so mad at her.

Paul and I have discussed it and we really believe she would be more productive learning to read. She just seems so bored with everything else and she is always wanting me to read to her and she is constantly asking me what that word is or this word....And she is always sitting around with a book in her hands acting like she is reading.....

I just would like to know some opinions of more experienced homeschoolers....

Thank You
Prayers

Love for our kids and my sis

Julie http://accordingtohispower2.blogspot.com has been posting alot about songs and how they relate to life. I found this you tube vido over on http://royalbness.blogspot.com/. It is very sad but something that most women can relate to.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JqfGqOx2iDQ

It makes me very grateful for the three wonderful little blessings that I have. There is nothing more precious than hearing your child say they love you. To think that at one time I did not think I would ever hear it makes me even more grateful.

To my sister, I love you and Iam so thankful for you and your prayers. I am so thankful that you are able to experience and enjoy all the precious little things they do. I do wish tht you had been able to experience it first but i am so glad that you were there to share Kylies with me.

Love and Prayers

Alainas Check up

Alainas checkup on her lymph nodes went well yesterday. She does not have anything wrong that they can find. Just symptamatic lymph nodes. Her tonsels are swollen a little and they said that if they start causing her problems, then they will consider taking them out. But so far she is good.

Jason had his check up on his ears today to. He is okay. no sign of infection or anything so.......

Jason goes back for his six month check up in a month and Alaina goes back for her check up in six months.


Whewwwww no more doctors for a while. Oh yeah Kylie has to go at the end of this months but still it is not every two weeks like it was....

My little secret.

I have a little secret. It is called depression......I have posted on it some before but have been struggling with it alot here lately....It has gotten worse since Jason was born and didnt seem to be going away. As I have said before I cant afford the doctor or medicines to treat it.

I have been considering taking herbal medicines (st johns wart) for it but have seen people that take this and dont like some of the side effects. So I prayed about it and prayed about it and feel that God has given me an answer.

I have found that taking Super B Complex and lots of Vitamin C has helped so much. I have been taken it for 2 weeks now and I have noticed a difference this week. Each day is better. I have more energy, I yell at my kids less, I dont have as many mad or hateful thoughts towards my husband, and I smile alot more.


I am not completely sure about sharing this. I may delete it in a few days, but for now it is here to help whoever it can help.

I am a very private person when it comes to my depression. I have always been the strong one and taken it all and never complained. I cant do that anymore. I have to have help.

Please pray for me that I will keep getting better and that my family will grow stronger because of this.

Love and Prayers

Our Homeschool

Tiany over at Less of Me ~ More of Him, http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/Tiany is hosting a Homeschool open house.

We are a family of five, my husband paul, myself, four year old Kylie, two year old Alaina, and 5 mth old Jason. We do not officially homeschool yet. We have been working with Kylie and Alaina on their basic skills and are looking into Curriculums for next year, maybe in December if Kylie is ready.

Our days are very unscheduled and fun. We usually get up in the mornings and eat breakfast. Kylie prays and then we have a little bible story and talk about it. Then we clean up the kitchen, start laundry, and pick up through the house. When we get all this done, we usually sit down and do some worksheets and puzzles and some days a craft. Our schooling also includes lessons in everyday life such as cooking and getting dressed. We also have lessons when we go to the grocery store.

I recently bought "Teach Your Child To Read In 100 Easy Lessons" and "Slow and Steady Get Me Ready" . We will probably start with these in another month or so...Right now we use alot of books....bought and checked out from the library.

If I had to give advice to anyone new to homeschooling it would be to not stress, do research, and pray. It all gets better with prayer.

Questions I have....too many to ask. I am still new to this myself and I will probably always have questions. But I guess, Does it always feel overwhelming?

Our school isnt much right now but then again I only have one that is really ready to do school the others are still playing. Although Alaina is very smart and is catching on fast.


I think this is everything, just your typical life with toddlers and infants.

Something Funny

I just had to share this....

Earlier, I was in the living room folding clothes and the girls were in the kitchen where they were not supposed to be... I had the dish washer running and I really do believe that it is on its last leg.....from all the noises it makes.....

All of a sudden they come bursting out of the kitchen just as fast as they can with these frightened looks on their faces.....stop...look at me and start crying......now while it was not funny that they were scared, it was the priceless looks on their faces because they had been caught doing something they werent supposed to do....lol..... I still cant stop laughing when I think about it...

I am guessing that they dishwasher made one of its funny noises since kylie said it was loud and going to get them...

Kids.....

Not Nothing Really Happening

WE have had an okay day I guess....Busy but not productive. Isnt that weird. I had to go get groceries today and with three kids, it takes forever. Now, after I get off of here, I need to get supper ready, do some more laundry and mow the yard. It is so tall you cant even see my new puppy in the grass...

I know it is crazy to let it get that tall but it is 1 1/4 acres to mow with a push mower. We have a riding mower but it is in the shop and dont know when it will get out.

I dont really have anything new just tired and busy.

Love and Prayers
Crystal

Weekend

Oh the joys of traveling with kids......especially to a bowshoot where it is hot and tiring and dirty.... I did not take my camera because the place we went to is very high security and they usually dont even let you take them past the gate but this year they didnt even ask.....funny huh... But if you can imagine two little girls and all the dirt and sticks they wanted...oh what fun they had.

I had a little bit of fun....I got to go to Bath & Body Works...and the kids actually behaved...I got to go to a few other stores too but I didnt buy that much because I need to buy some stuff for paul...

Jason has started trying to say sounds....he says a lot that sounds like Da Da Da.....so cute.

When we got home yesterday, I had my books that I ordered.....in the mail....Yippeee.....

Teach Your Child to Read in 100 easy lessons and Slow and Steady Get me Ready...

We have a couple of doctors appointments to go to this week and a house to get back in order but next week we are going to start on these.

We also lost our precious RobinHood this weekend (for those of you who dont know, that was our beagle puppy that we just got a few weeks ago....) We came home and found him....dont know what happened.

But we had another one reserved and get to pick him up tonight so that helps.. His name will be Elmer...cause he will always be hunting rabbits...lol

I guess that is all for now. I may post some pictures later today if we get to take any. But is may be later this week before we take any...

Love and Prayers

Accomplishments

Okay, I talked about getting organized....Well. I am working on it.



So far, yesterday I cleaned my washroom, kitchen, dining room, living room. I still need to do....



Kids room

Kids Bathroom

Kids Closet (yuck)

Our room

Our Bathroom

Our Closet

The Office (yes i am procrastinating on this one)





I have not mopped or vacuumed, I have just decluttered and reorganized.



Not bad for a woman with three kids (and I am missing my helper) That is another thing, Everyone always wants kylie and thinks they are helping me by taking one away. It would be more help if they would leave her and take one of the others......I could get more done if I didnt have to stop and feed Jason or get Alaina out of stuff...lol.. I mean Kylie helps. And she said the other day that she needed some momma time.....I dont get to spend as much quality time with her as I should...
