I'm not very good at keeping this updated but I thought that in light of all that's happened in the last little while I would be very ungrateful for the many many blessing that the Lord has shown me.
We've been out here in Roosevelt for about 4 months now. Our home in Logan has been on the market for the last 6 months. We've been making 2 house payments and barely making it by each month. We've tried to remain faithful through all this but have gotten discouraged quite often when month after month would go by and nothing would happen with our home. There has been much fasting and prayer and many trips to the temple to try and understand what it was that we needed to do. Finally this last week we got a call from our real estate agent telling us that he had a renter for us that wanted to rent the home for a year and a half. A family from Venezuela with 2 kids coming over to go to USU. The daughter and her husband and the girls' brother. Everything just seemed to fall into place at the right time.
I've learned a lot from this experience. Things don't always go according to the way we hope or plan them. Sometimes we need to put a little more trust in the Lord and His timing to know what is best for us. And if we endure our trials well, then we receive those blessings that he has promised us. When trials do come I try to look at it and ask myself, "what am I supposed to be learning from this?" and it seems to help me handle it better.
I'm grateful for my savior and for all the blessings that I have received. It wasn't exactly what I would have planned to happen but It works for us right now.
Also, we are expecting again. #4 baby will be here in June 2010. We didn't plan this out very well because we will have 4 birthday in a 3 week period....oh well, good thing we like cake. :)
And someday I will figure out how to post pictures on here, but for now you just get words....sorry.
