Well the girls have went back to college. The last week they were here Sam's boyfriend Brandon and one of their friends Jono was here with them. We had a good week. They were all alot of fun. We now have a new son, Jono asked us to adopt him. LOL... of course we said yes!! It was good to spend some more time with Brandon. Parnets like to get to know the boyfriends for some strange reason... lol. Sam and Brandon have been dating for a year now, they are still finding out new things about each other.
It was hard to see them all head back to FL. Scott and I both cried when they left. You would think we would be over that by now. Sometimes it seems even harder. But we are so proud of them both. And now we have a new son!!
The house is back to normal. So quite. Rocky is not doing very good. We have him on new meds. vet said that if he is not better in 2 weeks we will have to put him down. He is a good dog, I hate to see him go through this. He still wants to be with us and he wants to be loved. We got offered another Boxer dog today.. I don't want to see it go to the pound, but I don"t know if I want another dog right now either. We will see.
Spent the day at church trying to catch up on things. Still allot to do. But it is ok. I know this is where God needs me to be right now. Not sure what He is up to some days, but I just want to be obedient and hopefully not miss Him. I don't understand people that keep themselves miserable by not doing what God tells them to do. I do miss it sometimes, but I'm miserable when I do. I just know that when no matter what is going on in life, no matter how bad things get or confusing things are, if I just stop and listen to what He has told me to do and then follow through with it,,, He will always provide and guide me through things. I don't understand people that want to go to church and just sit, or go to a really large church and get fed and not get involved. I love the church, I go get fed and go home". I don't understand. Is that just one sided love. That is like raising a child and giving that child everything that is in you and that child never loving you back. No matter how often my girls and I disagree, bottom line is I know they still love me and would be there no matter what if I needed them. Even though we are far away right now, we are still a close family. How can you say you love God and not be there for Him, not give back. What are you building when you do that. It can't be anything solid. Doenst the bible say to build on a solid foundation. If we keep our foundations shaky how do we ever expect to be soild in Christ. Solid in our walk, our witness. How can we stand when things get rough if our foundation that we have built has cracks in it? We can't not for very long. After a while we will fall, fall threw the very cracks we created. So many thing that the foundation is the church that they go to, but you don't walk around with the church every day. You walk around with what is in you every day. You are building that foundation, it is the one that you create.
Lord, help us keep our foundation strong in You. No more cracks, I want my walk, my family's walk to show nothing but You in everything we do.
Moving forward this year. Lots of millstones coming up and I'm excited to see and be a part of what is next for the Clegg's.
