Two Weeks in Review

The girls’ local fine arts competition consumed last week.  Even with all of my efforts to have things finished ahead of time, it still felt like that one event ate up the whole week.  I ended up in bed on more than one occasion with ocular migraines, something I’ve had very rarely in the past but I seemed to only be one extra thing from having last week.  That said, the event was wonderful and the girls did quite well.  I’m still awaiting the email of what exactly moved on to the regional competition, as the awards were read so quickly even the girls aren’t sure what they won!  🙂

This week began with wonderful Spring-like weather and the news of Amania’s passport being printed.  That news combined with the thought that she may be home this spring has brought a lightness to the whole week.

I was also reminded this week what a gift my husband is.  To be married to a man who asks good questions and genuinely listens to my answers is a privilege.  We talked long this weekend about so many things, and to see him take those things to heart and put them into action this week has been a wonderful thing.  Sometimes life gets so busy and we get so bogged down in just surviving that we forget how amazing the people around us are.  I am blessed.

That’s it for me.  Have a wonderful weekend, friends!

For His Glory ~
