Date Night To be rescheduled

Wow, what an eventful evening.
Patrick and I had been anticipating Friday night all week. We got all dressed up, I even made my finger and toe nails all pretty. (which I barely do) We took our children to my dad's home and visited for a bit, then we were on our way. We went to Market Street Grill in Wabash. It was a bit of a wait, but the wait is well worth the food and especially the desert. We were seated and ordered our drinks received our drinks. I took a little sip of my white chocolate cappuccino, and Patrick had a message from my dad. Dad said "You need to come home now, I am taking Tait to the E.R. , I am sure he broke his arm." Oh no! I was about in tears for two reasons, I was crushed that my hubby and I was unable to have dinner alone together "alone", and that my little brother was hurt. I felt horrible. We immediately left, and the people at the restaurant were so kind and empathetic, they did not charge us for our drinks.
We picked up our children and my little sister at my dad's neighbor's house and then treated everyone out for dinner at Beef o Brady's then rented a few movies. We spent the night at my dad's. My brother Tait, along with my dad and stepmother, stayed the night at the hospital, then Tait had surgery first thing in the morning. Thankfully the surgeon did not have to open the skin to put the bones back in place. Tait broke both bones one inch from his wrist.
The Lord sure took care of Tait. It could have been a lot worse. Tait fell from a tree, and I am so glad that his arm was all that was broken. Another neat thing is that my dad and stepmother was forced to be in the same room together. Hee hee. God has a plan.
Patrick and I will be planning a date night sometime soon.
Hopefully sooner than later, and without any accidents.

Update on my dad

Hello everybody, my father is in need of our prayers right now. The custody case starts this friday morning at 7:30 a.m. . His wife (my stepmother), is still wanting a divorce and is being very relentless. Her heart is so hardened, she don't even realize she is hurting her own children by her actions. Keep her in your prayers too, please. This is such a sad situation. But even through all of these sad and difficult things, I can trust that God's might hand is in charge. Thank you and please keep praying for them both.

A long first week.

Patrick has put in his first week with his new job, 80 hours of work later. I have one tired man. We are truly thankful for God providing this job and I know He has a plan for Patrick being there. Patrick says he was put in a mad hornets nest. The Lord has been keeping me strong in Him. With Patrick working so hard and putting in long hours, it could be putting a strain on me. But only by the grace of God I am hanging in there and through Jesus Christ who is strengthening me, I am moving forward. Trying to be the best wife, mother, and servant I can humanly be.
With all of these things that is in life, I am so glad I have my man.
Praise God for everything!

Praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord for providing a new job for Patrick!
Patrick starts this Monday with his new job. It will be a big responsibility for him, but he can do all things through Christ Jesus. I am so thankful God is so merciful towards us. He answered our prayers very fast. Thank you Lord for everything!

Spilled Eggs& an interview

Well, I would have to say, I woke up to a big big mess. Even though it is funny now. I was not in a funny mood this morning. I over slept this morning and Colin was the first one awake. He decided he was hungry and was going to make himself breakfast. I believe he was wanting eggs. Only did he realize, he did not know how to cook them! He scooted a chair next to the refrigerator to get the eggs out, then he dropped them. All over the chair, refrigerator, and floor. (and under the refrigerator) Oh my! What a mess it was indeed.
So my children patiently waited for their breakfast this morning, as mommy cleaned the big mess and I am also going to have to make a new chair cover, since it is ruined and already in the trash. (that may not be made for a long while, since it is not a need for us to live)
Moving Forward.
Patrick received a phone call today for a job he applied for. It happens to be only two and a half miles away from our current home. He will be meeting with the president and another manager of the company at 4p.m today. The man he spoke with on the phone said, if they can meet a mutual agreement at the meeting, that they would like for Patrick to start right away. Wow! Please be praying for Patrick to use wisdom during this meeting. I am so thankful the Lord is in control and not me. This was encouraging news to me, today. Since the morning was a bit messy.
I am so thankful right now, even though the job is not for sure yet. I am just thankful God is in control of everything, and He will take care of us.
