Last night we went to a memorial service for a sweet lady from our church. I don't enjoy funerals and memorial services. She had cancer and it took over her ever so quickly. It seems that I have known so many people with cancer of late. It truly does make me think and reflect on my own life. What will people be saying at my funeral? Will I have been a spiritual blessing to many others? Our lives are but a vapor and we never know when our time will come. It is always a good reminder to me to look at my own life. I really don't know how the unsaved are able to endure the loss of a loved one. Without Christ there is no hope. Last night was a blessing to know we will see our wonderful friend again someday.
Yesterday I had to work. Thankfully I was able to go photgraph at the kids school. They thought it was so cool that the photographer was their mom. They made sure that all their classmates knew this as well! I was done before noon since it was a small Christian School. I had a blast! My job is fulfilling. I was supposed to work today but the school rescheduled.
We are looking forward to the weekend. In fact we look forward to every weekend. The weekend is our time together as a family. The boys and daddy are spending so much quality time together. They have an awesome bond with him. Audrey loves to sit on my bed to snuggle and watch TV. Mommy rather enjoy it as well(even if we are watching cartoons) I thank God for the time he gives me with my 3 wonderful children. Have a wonderful weekend!

I just read a book (secular) called "Christmas, Present" and it made me think about death especially as a mother and wife. I just balled my eyes out! I hope I leave a lasting impression for the good.

I am so glad you enjoy your job and that all is going well for you and your family! We have a man in our church who was diagnosed on Dec.14th with a rare brain disease and he probably only has a couple weeks left. It is so sad to see a very healthy man becomes so crippled and all so quickly. We pray for the Lord's will to be done in his life and that his wife will have perfect peace and comfort through this troublesome time. We love and miss you guys greatly!

Glad you're job is continuing to go well. It sounds like a lot of fun to me.
You are right, are life is a vapor. Since Drew got saved he is constantly talking about heaven. It has made me stop and think more and it is exciting to know that their is a much greater life after death.
