Special visitors yesterday.........

Well, yesterday morning we got up to the sight of our cat sitting at the sliding glass door to the back deck, trying desperately to get at something that was outside. This is what we saw. First they were all just standing around, but the pics I took didn't turn out. These pictures were taken about 30-40 minutes after we first saw them out there. I thought they had all left and went back inside, but no, they were still there and had made themselves very comfy, LOL. So out came the camera again, and I made very sure that these pics came out. Enjoy!!

Breathe!!!

Wow!! Talk about a whirlwind of activity and chaos! God is truly amazing! He has answered sooooo many of my prayers, and those of the wonderful people that have been praying for me and my boys the last few weeks.

The boys and I are now in a "new" home........not settled yet, but moved in. All of this happened in the space of less than 2 weeks, and only happened by the grace of God. We are out of the old mobile home we lived in that was causing health issues and financial issues, and into a wonderful house that has actually been sitting vacant for several months. I believe that God was holding this house for us for just this perfect time. I don't expect it to be easy sailing from this point on, but I know that God will get us through anything that comes up. These verses say it all:

"Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing?...Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?"
Matthew 6:25, 6:27 (NKJV)
