Okay, it has really been a while since I have written. Truly God is good!!!! I have been through alot of trials since I last wrote but God brought me through them all. He did not take me around them, He took me through them!!!! I am having a wonderful time being a mother to two teenagers. I love talking to them. We recently got a puppy. The first couple of nights he cried alot. He sleeps in a box in the house for right now. They both take turns letting the box be in their room at night. When he has to potty, he cries to get out of the box. The kids have to wake up and take him out. At first, he cried at around 11:00 pm, 2:00 am, and 5:00 am. He usually wanted to get up and play at around 6:00 am. My daughter started the first day. When he woke up that morning wanting to play bright and early, she was exhausted. I heard her ask her brother if he could get up and sit with him so she could get just a little rest. This brought back so many memories for me. (Trying to get my husband up so I could get some rest) This was wearing them out. My dear daughter called me on my cell the other day and told me how much she loved me and how grateful she was that I got up with her when she was little. She said she realized how much of I job this was. She was also grateful for the time I got up to help her potty train at night. I love her!!!!!! My dear son has also been getting up doing his share with no fuss. (Praise God!!!!) I have been talking to them alot about relationships and what God requires of us in them. When I went to speak at the women's conference, my daughter went with me. She went to encourage me!!! What a blessing!!!
