Time flies

Man does time fly when you having fun. I love that little phrase. It makes me think of my kids... how little time you have with them to lay the foundation that will last a life time.

I have lately been challenged about what I am really doing at home from the messages at church. I think a year ago I was blaming other people in my life and my husband for the way my life ended up. As I sit down and think about that... it is aweful. I made those choices. I am the one that chooses to stay home and be with my kids. Even if I have the attitude that can still end bad too because I am doing it all in my own strength. Jesus Christ is the one that I need to depend on.

For a while I have been thinking about writing on my blog and end up like everything else in my life saying "not right now" or "why, I haven't done it in a while no one cares." Well you know what someone does care... my Lord and Savior cares. I know what you are thinking... HIM?? Yes I think that he does care because if I say yes to writing down how I am doing. I am engage with my kids and you know what... God loves my kids. He wants them to come to Him and sit and listen at his feet.

Matt and I have choose that we need to change our lives. One of the ways that we are doing that is that we have both went back on Weight Watchers. My first meeting was last Monday. I was very happy to be back. It is very encouraging to be there. The first thing that you do is weight in. I was really not looking forward to it because I knew that it was going to say not what I wanted to hear and it did.... 314.4. Yep you saw it right. That is what I weight. That is what I weight when the twins were born. One of my friend really hurt me when I told her that we were doing Weight Watchers again, but it made me think if I don't do something now then when will I do something. I need to start sometime and the time is NOW!!

I am so sorry if this was boring for you. I just want to get back in and start again. I hope that you are with me :)

No apology needed! I'm so proud of you for admitting where things need to change and letting the reader's (whomever they may be) on your blog keep you accountable.

I know we didn't get to know you really well while we lived in Warsaw, but I have loved keeping up with you on your blog!

I would love to be one of your cheerleaders! You can do this...not through your strength, but through God's.
