crying and poor

Yesterday was a BIG day! Eme and I went shopping, needless to say it was a very busy day and hectic. I was feeling stressed and had some bad experiences in a number of stores, and felt like I hadn't spent quality time with her. I had forgot (Eme reminded me), two 6 packs of Coke's in Sam's when Eme and I were rushing back to get them, holding hands. I said, "Eme why did you forget those?" She said "I don't know Momma!" Then she said, "Momma I told you to get more cause my friend Hanna is coming to my party!" I said "Yeah you did baby." Then she says, "I know why we forgot Momma!" Of course I asked why, and she says "Cause we were talking too much!" I almost started crying and thought...Thank you God. You have gave me this day, and no matter what, if my 5 year old proudly thinks we were talking too much, then it was a great day!
Now....turns out yesterday morning, Ele and Lex were taking some food that we had up Momma's (she was out of bread), and Eme and I were getting ready to go shopping. Now yall know Lex spends ever dime she gets her hands on, and Ele is like Fort Knox with hers, well....Robert heard the following conversation: As they were getting the food, Lex says, "We're poor." Ele replies," No WE'RE not...I got $35!"

Have a plentiful day yall!
God Bless!

mouse

A girl I work with's daughter was in the Mexican resturant eating when she felt something lick and nibble her foot. She looked under the table and saw...yep you guessed it....a mouse. She screams, kicks the mouse and looks and the mouse can't run...she's broke it's leg. So the waiters got the mouse, and she got her meal for free, but she couldn't eat it! haha! Moral of the story. Wear shoes in that resturaunt, cause the food may be raw. haha! Couldn't resist! Have a great weekend! God Bless!

yesterday and today

First off HAPPY BIRTHDAY late to the Cuz! I can't believe that I didn't say it yesterday! She is being teased that she is a lot older than what she is so just for her Happy 49th Birthday Charla!!! haha! On another note it was Vic's Birthday yesterday as well and I know I blogged that her Dad was doing better, but yesterday morning in his sleep he lost his battle. I know it is true that they are better off, but it is still hard on the family. Please pray for her and Vanna, and the entire family. Aunt Shirley made it to WV to see her Dad who is holding strong. Please continue to pray for those who are sick and their families. God Bless!

strength

Some days we don't feel as though we have the strength to do much of anything.  To get up, to eat, to not eat, to fight the daily battle of traffic, work, or relationships....why?  Mainly because we lose our confidence.  Our confidence in the ability to "handle" things.  Remember the verse: "I  can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me." Phillipians 4:13.    We have talked before about how we are not alone, but we have not discussed how the devil attacks our confidence in the ability to achieve.  The ability that when we are doing what the Lord wants we can accomplish it through Him...not alone.  Repeatedly through the Bible God says that he will not forsaken us for he is with us.  If you have a doubt about something, first is it something that God wishes, second if it is then know that the devil is in play...including the attempted breakdown of your inner strength.  After you realize that keep telling yourse...
