It's Been a While

Hey. I have missed writing and adding to our little story, but life has been busy. I thought summer would come and things would finally slow down. Who was I kidding?!?!?! I have a toddler... I'm not even sure how that is possible. He is walking and into EVERYTHING!! I also have a retired mama who is struggling to find her place now. So we spend A LOT of time together! So needless to say things have been crazy. I've got craft projects, birthdays, and vacations all waiting on me. I hope I get to do at least a few of my to-do list!

We are still kind of in limbo with my mom. We are waiting to hear the results of the neuro-psych testing. We are waiting on a sleep test. It seems like we are always waiting. However, God has shown himself pretty evident in the last few weeks. A dear friend, who is struggling down this same road, and I have reconnected. It has been a HUGE blessing. It is so nice to be able to just talk with someone who understands exactly what I'm talking about.

We took a girls + Asher trip to  Branson last week. I was kind of stressed about it to be honest. But it was really good. We made a lot of memories and just enjoyed being together. I definitely needed the get away. Plus, it's really fun to make lasting memories right now! We took lots of pictures and lots of videos! We had a great time.

If I could ask a favor, pray for Chris and I. We are struggling quite a bit financially. This whole unexpected move, career change, etc has taken its toll on us and our finances. He is actively trying to find a permanent job but if you know anything about the Altus, OK area you know that's not easy. So just pray that God who has seen us through this far won't fail us now (which we know he won't) and pray for an opportunity to open up!

I won't lie ... the stress around me has taken or is taking its toll on me. But I'm trying to regain my footing and continue to remind myself who I belong to. Contrary to what I think most days ... it's not me. I'm going to try to write more about what I'm learning because I think that really keeps me accountable. In the meantime, we will keep living life each day. Taking one day at a time and focusing on making as many good memories as we can!

Thanks for checking in!
