For the Lord is Good, and We are Filled with Joy!

Seasons of life. 

I absolutely love Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens:
 a time to plant and a time to uproot,

a time to tear down and a time to build,

a time to mourn and a time to dance,


a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,


a time to keep and a time to throw away,


a time to be silent and a time to speak,


a time for war and a time for peace.



I feel that we have experienced most of these over the past couple of years, which has been beautiful even if it felt like the ugly beautiful. 

Some of you know our infertility journey. Some of you do not. 

I haven't even shared the half of it. 

However, that is a story for another day, because this day is about celebrating the good! 

Celebrating that when it rains, it pours, whether it is blessings or not. 

Celebrating that we now have a booth for our signs at University Pickers. 

Celebrating my new job back at the school I started with. 

Celebrating that even more dreams will come true this month. 

And celebrating that GOD strengthens the weak so that we may be strong enough to see and accept 
HIS grace. 

With great joy, we would like share the double blessing that GOD shared with us 12 weeks ago ...









This is the day that the LORD had made. 
We will rejoice and be glad in it. 

Psalms 118:24
