So, here we are, fall has arrived. I love fall. It's my VERY favorite time of year. The brilliant colors of the trees, the cool crispness of the air, football, and let's not forget... HOODIES! I love me a comfortable hoodie sweatshirt.
Fall is a time we can see so many changes around us. We've been studying about appreciating God's creations in Sunday School, and I know I don't often take the time to really see and admire what God has created. I can't wait for the leaves to turn and take a nice afternoon drive with the sista's and just "be".
Austin is playing football for the Jr High team and loving it, and I'm totally loving being a football player's mom. He makes me proud, and the energy and feeling in the stands, is like no other. It's been a season of change for Austin as well... a new world of Jr High. Dances, clubs, games and new friends. He is enjoying it and I am having a blast watching him grow. These next years will pass by me quickly, so I'm so relishing the hugs, goodnight kisses and "I love You's" while I have them.
With fall, comes what we call in my work world "traveling season". We start this coming weekend through the first weekend of December. I'll be making 5 trips this season....and I'm so THANKFUL that I have the opportunity. Is it tiriing? Absolutely! But feeling part of a team and doing my part to help the company be successful is like no other. God has been good.
With all that.... I think our weekends are busy throughout like next March... LOL! I'm kidding... but they are far and few between. However, Brian and I have made some changes in our lives recently, so that we can serve our Lord one inch wide and 20 feet deep rather than 20 feet wide and 1 inch deep. God is good, He is patient and so very wise!
In the meantime... I'm enjoying every day God is giving me to be a witness for Him, and not concerning myself about getting too much rest. I want to enjoy this life He has blessed me with.
My favorite verse: Lamentations 3:23 God's mercies are new every morning! Praise God!
Have a wonderful day.... enjoy God's Creation!
