Today is Friday, do I hear a big cheer and hooray!??!? even though I haven't worked outside the home for several years, there is still something about a Friday that says, "let's celebrate! the weekend is here!"
My guys will all be home later today, and I am one happy happy momma! of course as life would have it, they are all working on Mother's Day, so David and I will be by ourselves for the entire day. but just knowing that all of my sons are home for the summer makes my heart soar to the heavens!
They will all be working out at Camp with David again, as they have for so many years now. Tyler and Mick will continue to work weekends at Buffalo Wild Wings in Kent, where they have been working for the past few months, and Ryan will continue to work weekends at Home Depot as well. They don't want to give up their summer Camp jobs just yet.... which says so much for the wonderful way God moves every summer through both the staff and campers.
Sorry that I don't have anything crafty to show today. in a few more days I'll have several projects for you, I promise! :)
God has really been working on my heart and soul about seasons of my life and letting go, especially how they relate to some of the DTs I've been on.
Ecclesiastes 3
3 'To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:'
Perhaps you, too, have some things to set down so that you can walk free into your new season. I urge you to take some time to pray, think, and most especially pray some more. Seasons of life are important, but we must let go of them in order to move on to the next.... God has amazing things in store for us if we can only move ourselves out of the way and allow Him to work in our lives.
my love to all of you!

What a wonderful post! I see so much suffering and pain in the world from holding on to things best let go, things for which the season has passed and moved on. This is something I've been pretty intentional about my whole life, and years married to the military helped me so much in recognizing the blessing that comes from letting go and moving forward.
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day to you, Jennifer!
Jennifer - a wonderful post and something to inspire each and everyone one - lovely. (And, have a wonderful Mother's Day with your young men)
ReplyDeleteLove to you too Jennifer!
ReplyDeleteI hope you're keeping okay. I'm so glad to hear your boys are going to be home for the summer.
