It's Back To School .............

4 of the 5 kids headed back to school today..... 6:45 Joel and Sara Ava headed out the door for the Elementary. Karlton took them while I got Josiah up and going .Then at 7:30 I took Josiah over to the Middle School where he is starting 7th grade. I did take a picture of Josiah this morning, it just would not load on to my computer, so I will have to redo his picture. Then it was Jordan's turn to be dropped off at the High School at 8 am by Karlton on his was to work.

Tomorrow will not be as bad since Josiah will start riding the bus to school. Only 2 school runs in the morning and evening.

Lilee and I will start back to preschool today. Since I have a lot of cleaning to catch up on I think I will keep it light. Its kind of weird only having 1 kid at home. She really doesn't like it either.

At 2:15 Lilee and I will go pick up the 2 from the Elementary. I don't have to get the big boys until 5:30 from Cross Country at the High School..........unless Jordan calls me to come and get him. He has been sick since Fri. He ran a fever all weekend, but was better this morning. I am praying it was just a virus! But then again if it was I have a house full of people to look forward to getting it! That's pretty much my day other then cooking, doing tons of laundry, and running tonight....;0) So how is or was your 1st day of School?

Sara Ava's all ready for the 1st grade.

Joel is ready for his 1st day of 4th grade.

Verses that really spoke to me and helped me get through our adoptions.

(John 14:18) " I will not leave you as orphans, I will come to you."

(Isaiah 43:5-6) "Do not be afraid, for I am with you,
I will bring your children from the west. Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth."

(Proverbs 25:25) "As cold water is to a thirsty soul : so is good
news from a far country."

(Matthew 6:25-34) The do not worry chapter.
This is the chapter that told me we would adopt again and the
baby girl woud be named Lily (Lilee). "The lilies of the field".
This is a great reminder of why we should not worry, God will take care of his people!

(Psalms 82: 3-4) "Defend the cause of the weak and the fatherless; maintain the rights of the poor and oppressed. Resue the weak and neady; deliver them from the hand of the wicked."

(Psalms 68: 5) "A father to the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in his holy dwelling."

(Deuteronomy 10:18) " He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow and loves the alien, giving them food and clothing."

(Philippians 4:13) "I can do all things through him who gives me strength."

(Philippians 4:6-7) " Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present
your request to God. And the peace of God,which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

(Romans 8:28) " And we know that all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."

(James 1:27) "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after the orphans and widows in their destress, and to keep oneself from being polluted from by the world."
