Amazement..

I have been at peace about a lot of things lately for some reason. I have been enjoying my kids more, have been loving the weather, loving the time with my family, and really appreciating my dogs..Ruger makes me feel so loved sometimes because he has to be with me wherever I go..it is a nice feeling to be wanted like that! The only thing that makes me stressed right now is that I can't get pumpkin at the grocery store..how will I start my fall baking? :)

I just needed to write a few things tonight because they are on my mind..Remember the flowers that I planted in my yard and at Aubree's grave? Well..mine have been dead for about a month or so. Aubree's are still blooming..Her grave is in the middle of a field with no shelter at all..no rain..no care at all..This shows a higher power in my mind..Her beauty is still here..she is still blooming even though her body is not on this Earth. I am so amazed that her Foxgloves (both of them) can still be thriving..I am surprised in some ways, but in other ways I am not at all. How amazing is that? She is everywhere. A good friend of mine asked me if I still think of her as much..yeah, I do. I think of her just as much as I think of my other kids, but is just in a different way. She is a part of me, and I will never forget any part of her. Her dragonfly showed up the other day again..the same red one, and it landed on my chair..mine..not Mike's, not any of the other chairs on the deck..she has landed within a foot of me both times..She stayed around long enough for us to get a picture of her this time..She is beautiful..I really do believe she is telling me that she is doing well where she is. When I see that dragonfly I can't help but smile because it reminds me so much of how beautiful she is and always will be. What a wonderful gift..

This morning as I was driving Carley to preschool one of my favorite worship songs came on, and it really got to me today for some reason..I think God likes to remind me when I am floundering that he can really move the mountains..Sometimes I need a reminder because I get too busy in my own little head to take the time to praise the one who has given me life....

MIGHTY TO SAVE LYRICS - HILLSONG

Everyone needs compassion,
Love that's never failing;
Let mercy fall on me.

Everyone needs forgiveness,
The kindness of a Saviour;
The Hope of nations.

Saviour, He can move the mountains,
My God is Mighty to save,
He is Mighty to save.

Forever, Author of salvation,
He rose and conquered the grave,
Jesus conquered the grave.

So take me as You find me,
All my fears and failures,
Fill my life again.

I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in,
Now I surrender.

My Saviour, He can move the mountains,
My God is Mighty to save,
He is Mighty to save.
Forever, Author of salvation,
He rose and conquered the grave,
Jesus conquered the grave.

Shine your light and let the whole world see,
We're singing for the glory of the risen King...Jesus (x2)

My Saviour, He can move the mountains,
My God is Mighty to save,
He is Mighty to save.
Forever, Author of salvation,
He rose and conquered the grave,
Jesus conquered the grave.

My Saviour, you can move the mountains,
You are mighty to save,
You are mighty to save.
Forever, Author of Salvation,
You rose and conquered the grave,
Yes you conquered the grave

He has brought me peace, and I am so thankful..
