Life's Like a Box of Chocolates...

     So the other day, I was walking and praying and spending time with the Lord before I started my day here at Fatherheart. I had been having a difficult time accepting myself and loving myself, and liking myself the day before. I don't quite remember why I was having trouble with that but that's irrelevant. I was asking God to remind me I'm loved and wanted here, when all of a sudden, I hear a knocking noise on the tree. It was a wood pecker bird. That was God's way of letting me know I was STILL loved, and wanted!!! It's kinda funny too, because everyone when I was younger told me I sounded like Woody the Woodpecker when I laughed, and I laugh all the time here and from what I've been told, my laughter is contagious!!! :) :) :) So it just really made my day 100 percent better! 

     On Monday the 6th, I had an interview with Mercy Ships for the Anchorage Cafe and I was really nervous about everything because I haven't had to do a job interview in almost a year!!! But the Lord was faithful, and gracious and calmed my nerves right as I was going into it, and I did GREAT! I did so great that I even got the job!!!!! PRAISE THE LORD!!! I start Tuesday at 4:30 p.m. and will be working during the week. I am so thankful for this and it really goes to show that the Lord IS on my side! If God is with me, then who can stop me!!! Now my probation officer in Tyler can get off my back!!! :) :) :) 

     Also, I had to go to Granbury, and Stephenville, which to some of you it may not matter, but that's my home town, and the place I got into trouble at and I had to go back and take care of some things for my volunteering here at Fatherheart, and I was really worried about it, but thanks to the Lord, I was in and out with everything in less than a hour and a half!!! :) Thanks to Aaron for roadtripping with me! 

     I just want to continue to thank everyone who reads this blog, and continues to pray for me and my son. I still get pictures and updates about him. He's almost 7 weeks old on Tuesday! I can't believe it! I am hoping to get to see him sometime this upcoming week. Be praying for me that I am emotionally strong to do this, because I can never know if I'm ready for it unless I try it. It's not like I'm trying to hurt my self, but I'm trying to move on in my adoption journey. I know that Logan and Kurt are ready to start their life regular again, with Family Night and everything. Lindale IS a SMALL town, we're liable to run into each other sometime, so I'm glad we're going to meet before anything like that happens. 

     I love each and everyone of you guys. Thanks once again for the prayers, and just accepting me and my decisions. And for supporting me. Untill next time...
