This is the only way it would let me post :(

Here it is December, where has time gone. I just realized this a.m. I have not posted pics of our new home, where we moved to in May. I am really bad at blogging now :( Preston is doing great! He did have a cold, but other than that, he is doing well! We are so thankful for that.Missie loves Union Bible Academy. She has moved into the dorm so she won't have to drive 1 1/2 hrs/day and during winter it would have been hard. She loves living in dorm and having her friends there. She is in choir and absolutely loves that and travels when they travel. She is maintaining a B average, and that is great! It was a big switch to switch from ACE cirriculum to textbooks, but she has done very well. We love our home, and spending our first holidays in it! Will post some pics.

My rainbow

After some quite severe storms today, there was a rainbow. "When it looked like the sun wouldn't shine again, God put a rainbow in the sky." It was so pretty. I got the best pictures of it that I could.

Today has been an alright day overall. My heart has been so heavy over things I cannot talk about on this blog. It is not in my personal life or with my family; but other things that make one's heart heavy. Junior and I were talking tonight. I told him we have a lot of problems it seems, but we have a lot of blessings too. He agreed. I told him to could make it as long as we are together! He also agreed to that. We have to so much to be thankful for. That rainbow reassured me again that after the storms of life, there will be a rainbow. It has been proven in our lives over and over.

Missie is much better today. Bless her heart; I felt for her yesterday. She had been talking about going to Penn View and live in the dorm when she is 15 and finishing high school up there. Last night she told me she didn't think she was ready to go because she couldn't imagine laying in a dorm room all day alone and be sick and not have me there, and she told me she loved me. Maybe by the time she is 15 we will be moved up there. Anyhow, she has been able to eat some today, and is feeling much better. We are still praying that Preston will be protected from this terrible stomach flu.
