Tell me once again

It’s been a rough week. Heck, in some ways it’s been a rough month. Few months.  I can’t so much elaborate, but it has definitely brought about the need for some important reminders…

**It doesn’t matter what she thinks, it matters what HE thinks about me, and He thinks I am “wonderfully made.” Ps. 139:14

**When the love around me and hope for my future seem no longer sure, HE will not fail me. HIS love is unfailing.  Ps 33:22,   Jer 29:11

**My silent tears are not unnoticed. HE comes to my comfort.  Ps 145:19

And music is always the avenue that reaches me in the strongest way…

“You are God, You are God, Of all else I’m letting go…
I’m running to your arms, I’m running to your arms,
The riches of YOUR love will always be enough.”
--Hillsong “Forever Reign”

“In the mirror all I see is who I don’t want to see,
Remind me who I am…
Tell me once again who I am to YOU…
If I’m you’re beloved, can you help me believe it?”
--Jason Gray “Remind Me Who I Am”

“Try and do the best you can, hold on and let Him hold your hand,
Go on and fall into the arms of Jesus…
He knows how much it hurts, and I’m sure that He’s gonna help you get through this...
When the waves are taking you under, hold on just a little bit longer, He knows that this is gonna make you stronger, stronger.
The pain ain’t gonna last forever, in time it’s gonna get better, believe me, this is gonna make you stronger…”
--Mandisa “Stronger”

I must soak in these truths, in the reality that is so very different from my perception.  I need not dwell on these times of sadness. HE is here. He IS here. He is HERE.

Thank Goodness.

Oh happy day, Less question mark!

As a follow up to yesterday's post, I got word today that we will NOT be assigned to the new guy, but we will have an experienced coordinator after all. I feel SO much better. I also learned some other info today that made me think I still have some kinks to work out, so I'll be taking care of that this next week. I'll be SO glad when this transition/IEP stuff is behind us. I want to do the very best I can, but there's part of me who wants to just hide and let it all happen without me.

31 for 21: What to say

I have encountered plenty of people who ask "How old is she?" when Braska and I are out together here and there. They always guess her age about 5 months younger than she is, but that's ok, since that's what size she is. I have said several times that I can imagine it will bother me a bit more, although still not a huge deal, when she turns one next month and I see their reaction to that, as she still is in her car seat/carrier when we're in a restaurant or in a store since she doesn't sit up. Today, I met some friends for brunch. The waitress was a nice enough, very young girl, and she started cooing at Braska right away. That's nice. I don't mind, Braska likes the attention, and I'm proud of my cutie. The waitress asked her age, and I told her 11 months. She then said, "But she's not walking yet?" as she noticed that she was up to the table in her car seat/carrier. I just agreed and said, "Not yet." She said she h

Was there a line??

I assume that you went to vote, either today or earlier if possible. I expect that of you, know that straight up. How long did you wait in line?? And throw in the state you voted in, just for fun. I'm really curious if all areas have a big wait or if it's just the more congested ones. I voted Friday absentee/in person, and we waited about 15 mins or so. It moved VERY fast for a big line. There's just one place in our very populated county to do the absentee/in person voting, and it wasn't bad at all for what I thought it might be. If you haven't, GO VOTE people... again, please just know what you're voting for, either way. You may just have to live with your choice. God Bless America!!
