Wow, what a great day for me~ I actually took off work from the shop and spent the day with my husband! I have not taken any days off away from the shop because I have 2 new employess and was not comfortable with leaving them alone. But today, I just had to have a get away day. Jason and I spent some time at home and then went shopping. I haven't started for the holidays until today...yikes~ but its all fine now.
This year the holidays are so hard for me. Last year all during the holidays was a tuff, wonderful, and sad time all mixed together. It was our last Christmas with my nephew. We lost him on January 2, 2007 to a rare childhood cancer. Knowing in our hearts that God knows best is still a difficult thing to accept when watching and waiting on a miracle to give healing on earth. My mind has been filled with him today....and thank goodness, I filled my mind with scripture!
Below is a link to a youtube video...its really awsome, and it has my sister in law and my nephew in it. He would be so proud...he always loved being center of attention and popular...in the papers, the news, and now on the net~ If this doesnt work by the link provided, please search for it.

It is getting late, I have an early day tomorrow, I should head to bed..........hopefully soon I will get use to blogging and be better at updating. And as far as the bundle of joy we are waiting on...nothing new. Just more dreams!
Ephesians 6:19Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel

Together Tuesday
Today has been productive! Jason, my husband, came and helped build a shelf for me at work. I have to find some more space.~ Maybe I need to get rid of somethings? It is so nice when he can come hang out and work with me at the shop. He has a different job, so he is not at my shop during the day, unless its a major holiday.
After work, we went to have supper with some friends. It is a great thing to be able to hang out and just relax with a group or couple. They are as excited for us in our adoption process. We talked about different things that will be happening soon. They have a 3 yr old daughter, we are not so sure that she is ready for us to get a baby...she says no!
We did receive some information on the last child the agency talked to us about. We were not selected by the birthmother. So for us that means, keep waiting and praying. But for someone, that means they are working on a new phase in their life. How wonderful that is for them, building their family thru love.
Its getting late for me, I have a busy day decorating houses tomorrow, I should get some shut eye~

Weekends~
Where does the time go? Seems like we work way too much! My husband and I both work on Saturdays and Sundays are usually church and family day. Today I had to work, not a break at all this week, makes for a tuff start on Monday. I own a florist, and sometimes never know when I will get called to work. Tonight I finished up some paper work for the store, and wanted to check in here.
My last update, I mentioned we had our profile sent. I'm not sure how long it takes to hear back anything. I know that there were others that was sent. This is the first time our profile has been sent out, so I guess this will be one of those live and learn things! We both know that what ever happens, selected or not, that is whats in the master plans! His plans are always right and on time!
Anyway..........I need to sign out...I have to catch up on house work so that last week's wont drag into this week~ haha...
