Freedom Files

This is my pursuit of freedom. I am a wife to the most amazing guy EVER!, mother of four, with a new one arriving in May. We homeschool, own a business, and love Jesus.

I can't believe how long it's been! I was doing so good with my blog, and then I just left it. Poor little blog.

Anyway, so much has happened since May 30. We did get approved for another house - a brand spanking new mini-home on our lot, but then that fell through (surprised? no.). So again we are just waiting and hoping and praying...found another house we love, RIGHT ON THE WATER...and kindof cheap considering it's location. But I guess I've been through this so much, and time is ticking away until baby number 3 arrives that I just haven't had the motivation to be even remotely excited - somewhat hopeful, but not really excited.

In sad news, my dear sweet nephew Michael David Jr., was born, and died Aug.10. I attended the graveside service with my father and newest step-mother. It was very sad. They asked me to sing, and I don't know how, but I made it through one verse and chorus of "How Great Thou Art." Bro. and sil are doing ok. Been busy though moving from Truro to Charlottetown, so he can begin his final four years at UPEI to become a veterinarian. I am proud of both of them. They have done so much and kept their faith in spite of a pretty painful loss. I love them both dearly.

The boys are good. Cole is so much fun (3&1/2). Today he was trying to show me a candy that I had just given him, and asking me if it was orange (which it was). But dh answered instead. So Cole says, "No, Daddy, you don't talk about orange!" It was his way of saying I don't want you to tell me, I want Mommy to. We had a good laugh. Luke will be two in exactly one week....uh, how did that happen??? I cannot believe time can go so quickly. Reminder to self: cherish children now, as they will be grown before you know it.

Business is good. Lots of changes. Will post more on that at a later date.

I just thought maybe I should post for a change.
