Happy Birthday to the Love of my life!

To my soul mate&my best friend,

No words can adequately express my heart when it comes to you my love.
You have had this effect on me for 18 years and I pray for many more!!

When I look to an earthly example of Gods love for me, I look no where else but to you.
Your gorgeous smile, loving eyes, strong hands, and gentle heart that loves, protects and provides for me each and every day.
Your commitment to me, unconditional love and devotion to our relationship and our family, amazes me still.

I could write&write of all the things you do, but that's not what really is at the core of who you are.
The foundation that those things are built on are, your reliance on Jesus to lead our home, your integrity, character, trustworthiness, leadership, and willingness to put Christ first, me second, our girls third, and all else never over rides those priorities.

I have said it over&over but it never grows old,
I love you and have never got over that God loved me so much, He gave me you!!

Thank you for sticking by my side&taking care of me...

I hope you know how much the girls and I love you!!!
There is nothing else we would rather be doing but celebrating you!

Happy Birthday my love!!!

                  Forever&Always,
                     Love Me

It's been awhile!!!

God loves us so much that even a little detail such as this picture, He delights to give!!

It has been a loooooooongggg time since I have been able to "properly" dig into bible study over a relaxing spread!

Don't get me wrong, I delight in ALL time spent with the Lord... This makes it extra special for me.

It's one of those "lil" details, but oh how much happiness it adds to the Joy&Blessings of this life!!!

Middle of the week!

Last night was nice, came home encouraged that the Lord has us on the right path as we head deeper into these High School years!!!

Starting coffee &settling in for a nice time with the Lord. I find when I don't get this time my day doesn't seem as complete, nor run as smoothly as it does when my mind&spirit are focused.

Yesterday the girls each started their own Journey into a deeper Bible Study time.. I am one excited Moma!

Kaity ordered "Stepping Up" (Beth Moore)
Kelsey&Shania both ordered "Breaking Free" (Beth Moore)

To say excited is an understatement!!
I love a good in-depth Bible Study, Beth Moore is my favorite author ( and no I don't agree with every word printed) but it challenges me even more to stand firm in what we believe!

So, I am going through S/U with Kaity&looking forward to what God has in store.
The older two are doing theirs together, and than we meet up over coffee/tea, and discuss our homework(there are five days of homework to each week of study)

Well coffee is done *Smile*

Trust you all have a wonderful Wednesday!

Rome wasn't built in a day!!!

This was the overwhelming theme today in the "parent-teacher" meeting this AM!!!  
I do believe SOME of the "parents" are having a hard time grasping this concept... but we are all a work in progress.. HA!!
In-case you have not caught on yet... I am the parent teacher combo!!! And yes I do hold these meetings regularly.. 
You should see the look on the kids faces when I tell them to please excuse us, we are in a meeting!! ROFL..
Sometimes the principal gets to sit in on them as well :) 

Folks, humor OK!!! If we did not have it, have mercy I would go CRAZY!!!

So GOD answered prayer in a BIG way Sunday, and gave us a MUCH needed touch so we could go to church! PRAISE YOU FATHER!!!
The dinner was very good ( of course it was my mama&grandma cooking) the girls were privileged to serve along side them.
The message was EXACTLY what was needed, and I thank the Lord for HIS word spoken through His servant to these thirsty ears. 
Yesterday was a rough day, but that is ok, and today I feel better ... Heart rate was only running around 132 ( still painful) but I took my meds right away, and shall go marching on!! 

I am so very excited for this evening.. My dear husband is going to be home in time for me to attend our home-school group's Moms Mentoring Night... Theme- HIGH SCHOOL!!!!! 
M*U*C*H Needed... I love to hear from other Moms who are ahead on this journey and glean from their experience!! Not to mention the awesome time of fellowship!! 

GOD IS SO VERY VERY GOOD.. HE IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED!!!!

Beautiful day here in the AZ valley, and am thankful for what has and will be accomplished today for the Lord!! 

Trust you all are having a wonderful Tuesday afternoon, and remember, Jesus IS the answer!!!!!

Laughter is good for the soul!!!

Can't believe how fast this week went yet in other ways seemed long.

From what we've heard, this week was supposed to be Spring Break.....so we did what any awesome homeschooling parent would do...... We took them out on our way home from an appointment!!!

~Multitasking~ people, at its finest!!

Thankfully it was a huge success, memories were made & had a blast!

First let me refresh your memory... anything we do, it always has a story to go with it.. That's just the way we do!!!!!!!!!

We stopped for dinner@one of our favorite mexican resturants.. The place was not busy at all upon our arrival.

We ate, talked, laughed, and laughed&decided we should hurry(we had another stop to make)

So we finish eating dinner and are preparing our belongings for take off, without noticing the dinner rush had "arrived" (we were seated in the far rear corner booth)
So off we went single file through the maze of tables&people TRYING to get out.....
After backing up&trying several different aisles (that were blocked by pleasantly rounded people stuffing chips down faster than angry birds on crack sipping cocktails) we spotted an opening&made a mad dash towards it.
I felt like we were dancing with the stars, except we don't dance&last I checked a few stars short of insanity!
I noticed a gentleman had his elbow sticking out from his booth&without missing a beat I twirled to the right, to minimize contact with the frontal area of my person..........
ALL the while muttering........
"excuse me, oops so sorry, oh dear didn't see that, pardon us"
Anyway, after a VERY akward brush of one said stranger on my lower hip, I made it!!!! YES!!!!
Yet as I turn to watch&laugh at my dear husband&darling girls, they were instead laughing at me&pushing one another to get OUT&make a run for the boarder!!!
With a look of puzzlement I asked what was so funny(apart from the scene we must of been winding around people trying to eat, and doing it rather quickly at that)

We all made it outside&with bursts of hystericals, they proceed to fill in the blanks.

So the dude with the elbow in the wrong place at the wrong time, ended up getting smacked up the right side of his body, including his face&back of his head......
BY MY HAIR!!!!!!!

I didn't even feel it, had no clue!!
I guess the women he was with got a good chuckle at that as well.
So we got a good laugh out of that one on the drive home.
All that twirling must of got my hair going &that last twirl trying to miss his arm ended up doing awhole lot more!!
Steve said he looked dazed&confused&jumped&started looking around for what hit him.
He had been in the middle of trying to describe something to these women&lost his train of thought!!

Never a dull moment with the Wiseman family!!

Guess the activity of the day was a bit much for me....

So thankful Jesus has been near..
It's been a rough week, but God has been so good&His mercy endures forever!

Praying we can make it to church tomorrow.. There is a church dinner after the AM service.

Hope everyone had a great week&weekend,
have a Blessed Lords Day!!
