What a busy summer I have had. In May I took my husband for a long weekend to Orlando Universal Studios for his birthday. It was so much fun..... riding crazy rides, and being a big kid!
In June he and I took our special vacation without the kids. We traveled on a road trip to Charleston SC, Hilton Head SC, Savannah GA, and Tybee Island GA. It was hot and humid, but we had a wonderful time together. July was my mother in laws 70th birthday, so we surprised her by throwing a party in Pennsylvania with all her family there. It was so great seeing her look of shock and surprise, when she walked in.
It has been a challenging summer, with many changes occuring in the family. The Lord never gives us more than we can handle, and I am spending many moments in prayer and reflection.
I know that is how he refines me..... so I am claiming it as one of His blessings. I just hope I can learn all that God has to show me about myself and others during this time, and that I am sensitive to the Holy Spirits' direction for my life.
