I've had a fairly busy week. I've kind of hit a wall this week and have had a tough week but things are going to be better!
I spent some time with these two earlier in the week. They are two of my dear friends and probably the two most praying women I know. If I ever needed prayer - I would call them both because they are always praying and they have also both seen miracles in their lives. I just love them!
Poor Will Holden. He is so tried of being in the house. It's too hot to get out much and even when we do - there is no where really to go. All of our playgrounds are locked up and closed. So I took him to the dog park with Milli one super hot afternoon. No one was there so it was better than nothing. Than we found a shaded creek right across from it to play in. My girls don't mind being at home for months but active five year old boys are struggling.
I've started back on Faster Way. This was my dinner the other night. I was so proud of my cypress salad because it's Basil I grew in my own garden! And it was so good. I have tomatoes that are almost ready so I can really eat something I grew soon!
The girls and I (and Milli) did another video in our Bible Study. This is in Matthew 6 and talks about praying and giving and I think it's a good one for your kids to watch!
Yesterday I took the kids to Target. It was their first trip to a store in four months and they were SO excited! We stayed an hour and a half because I let them just look at everything they wanted to. They needed a little sense of normalcy and happy. The store was pretty empty and it was good for them to have an outing. And practice wearing masks.
Susan and I took some clothes to Beautiful Lives yesterday. If you are local - you need to check out Beautiful Lives. There is one in Bentonville, Fayetteville and Siloam Springs. You can donate your clothes there (women's only) and they are a resale shop. They have CUTE CUTE stuff and it goes to help a lot of local organizations that help women. It's such a win win to shop there!
I'm praying for you and me as we go into the next few days. There are so many hard things right now. Everyone has different struggles. But God sees us and He is in control. And He loves us.
