Good Intentions

Good Sunday (always Good however)






I was just enjoying the wonderful updates of some of the most steady-on bloggers that I follow. Brought to mind that I have been keeping some written account of my life's journey since 2 nd grade and now find it nearly impossible to blog on a regular basis. Suppose that life and the living of it consume my time for taking time to do what I enjoy SO much....writing. Alas, I try.






We are a bit busy to put it mildly. Senior Steve in high school,






seniorette (still travel abroad and student teaching remains) Jenn, at UA. Somewhere betwixt the two offspring, Rob and I tend to the daily stuff of house and home and bills and more! I tire to think about it much. Such blessings though are brief and we will empty out our nest in a blink of an eye. So when the laundry, grocery, housetending etc would weigh-in, I pause and praise and move along.






Steve is having an awesome blessed and protected football season. Our Talmmadge Blue Devils are 4-0 and I still sit neck tensed up with my inner parts in an uproar as he and his fabulous teammates take the field each Friday night under the lights. Thankfully Robert is far too focused on the game to take note of the fact that I mutter prayers outloud under my breath on EVERY down of EVERY play. I am SO thankful that Jesus doesn't mind watching football with me every Friday. Unbeknownest to my Steve, I wrote his life verse (IS 40-31) on his thigh pads one morning when I was helping pack him up for a game. Rob and I both know and bear witness that our Buddy's talent is from the Lord and we seek God's will and protection so Steve can go forth and be a blessing on and off the field.






Jenn is a tale for another post. You know the type, one of those easy-going never ruffle off the radar children that is almost TOO easy to raise. Makes any confrontation over any little thing even harder from a parenting approach. She and I spend our time together reflecting and directing our hearts and prayers to the Lord for her future and His will regarding her life. "What a Friend We have in Jesus..."
