INSANITY

Sometimes things get a little crazy... and I hate that it means the blog gets pushed to the back burner for a short time. What kind of insanity has happened you ask?

I was baptised.
2 litters of kits (baby bunnies)
Lost one litter.
Presented with the option to buy this house.
Added a lot of rabbits!
Finished up 4 custom orders.
Stomach flu, which is still hanging around! Poor kiddos!

and now today we have roofers here to replace our roof!

None of it is really out of the ordinary for us, just usually it's not all at once!

Times like these I am brought to my knees in prayer multiple times a day. I am brought to tears. I am overwhelmed. I am tired and I am weary. Most importantly, I am faithful.

I am steadfast. I am clinging to the Lord. I am comforted in the knowledge that He will never give me more than I can handle and no matter how alone I feel (like sitting in the ER with 6 kids and no help to be found!) I am not alone, He is right there with me through it all!

Even when you feel like you can not handle it another minuet, if the Lord has laid it in your path, trust that it is for a reason. I have learned that I am stronger than I think, I can work more efficiently if I try.

I've learned where I need to let go. I've seen what areas are taking up time I can not afford to spend.

The house is slowly coming back together and the animals are all doing well. So it's time to get things back to our routine and prepare for garage sales, bake sales and a lot of extra work to pull together the down payment we need!

  1. I'm so glad you're back!! I wish I was closer, definitely would have stayed with A, B, C, D & F so you could give E your undivided attention. Congratulations on your baptism.

    Big hugs.

    1. Thanks dear. I wish we were closer so we could visit and chat... because we have copious amounts of free time for that right?
