The baby wanted his picture taken. How can you say no to that?!

Our newly redone entryway. They did an awesome job on the pattern! The entry was redone to match what they did in the dining room.

The (finally) clean living room. Yes it took me until today to find it back after the flooring people were here last week...

Tulips! Random pictures of tulips season is now upon us. I LOVE tulips! Considering taking the kids and getting pictures done with tulips this year as the moles seems to have gotten to my tulips. Out of about 200 bulbs, I currently only have a handful coming up. Really hoping the first ones are just over achievers and more are coming...

The boys playing ball after supper.

Our carpet-free dining room! During the first 24 hours it was tested with vomit AND an entire bowl of cereal. Yep! Easy cleanup!

Relief

This last week has been a very tense one. A couple weeks ago I felt a lump in my breast. I wasn't sure what was going on, so I decided to wait and see if it went away on it's own. After about 3 weeks it had not, so I went in to the dr and had it checked. She thought that it was about 2 cm in size and defiantly not a cyst. She asked if I wanted to wait and watch it for a couple months or if I wanted to jut go ahead and ultrasound. I decided to just get it over with and get the ultrasound which I had this morning. I was so impressed! The ultrasound tech was really nice, and they even had a radiologist on hand to read me my results right away. It's a lymph node. Thank God, it doesn't seem to be anything of concern right now. And so, I am heading back to school to resume my teaching responsibilities with one huge burden lifted. I am so thankful for the kind and caring medical staff that showed me such care and compassion today as well as my husband who has been the greatest blessing in my life. Now on to school!

"Therefore I tell you, do you be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is now life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? Any why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? Therefore do not be anxious, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you needs them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. "Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
