He is our peace

The Bible says that God knows what we need before we ask him. It also says we should seek him first, and all these things (food, cloths etc) would be added unto us! I ordered 2 dresses for Nicole online 2 weeks ago. She goes to Vienna on Saturday morning. She needs a dress for the Opera. The dresses have not come! She has no time to shop tomorrow. We only have 2 hours tonight to shop. 2 hours before the stores close. I’m praying UPS shows up before Nicole returns from her Math Tutor. I do not want to race out to buy a dress! But you know what? God knows! I thank God I have money to buy her a dress. She has shoes for her over sized feet (I had to order those special). What an awesome opportunity! I love Vienna! It is a very cool city. Vienna has great art, and great cafes. I wish she was taking a train. They are traveling on a bus. Please pray for a safe trip.
This has been (is) a crazy busy day. I could use some peace! I love the old song….

Jesus has broken down every wall. He is our peace, he is our peace. Jesus has broken down every wall, he is our peace…he is our peace.
Cast all your cares on him, for he cares for you…he is our peace…he is our peace!

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

Reading Kingdom

I am very happy to review the Reading Kingdom.   This is an online program that uses a variety of methods to teach reading.   I decided to share this product with my adopted granddaughter Ruth.   Reading kingdom uses a six skills integrative method Ruth only just began to use the program. She is only 3 years old and cannot use the program without help.   But her mom says that she can already recognize words like girl and kids when they are shown on the screen.   Sylvia wrote that she loves the repetition of the words in the program .   That Ruth is memorizing the words she sees.     She will be able to use it for an entire year.   But I expect her to become a very good reader.   And what a great gift to give to any child!   She will have a lifetime love for books.     Sylvia also works with teenage mothers in Uganda.   And many of these women have never attended school.   So she plans to use these ideas to h...

Happy Birthday to Jessica

Today Nicole and I took Jessica shopping. She turns 22 years old tomorrow. She has grown over the past year. She now likes her disabled workshop. And she has begun to learn to write again on the computer. It is a slow process, but maybe she can write independently in the next 5 years. Her teacher is wonderful. We are very blessed to have her help! If I stopped and thought about what Jessica might be doing if she was healthy, it could break my heart. Birthdays should be happy, but when your child is disabled it's always bitter sweet. Bitter because of the milestones that were never met, and sweet because of the person that is still very valuable and wonderful. But I'm sure everyone feels bitter sweet about something in your life. Life is never only sweet. For me it is much better to fix my eyes on what is there and let go of what I hoped for...what every parent hopes for. Jess bought a new book, 3 DVD's and a Fanta. I also took her to McDonalds because that is ...
