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.

Just a note!

I have had to change my settings, so that you cannot post on here without my authorization. It is sad I have to do this. But I will allow comments that are nice, friendly, Christ-like, etc. If you think I am wrong about something, then the Christ-like way is to come to me and tell me, not make it public for everyone to see. It is easy to get on here as anonymous and accuse me rather than facing me with what you want to say; that is a coward's way out. To post it on here for everyone to see without your name is not a nice thing to do. That being said, I will continue blogging as I see fit. You may or may not agree with us on various items. That is ok; that is your privilege. My husband, Junior, says the anonymous writer is probably jealous, and I think he is probably right! I have a wise husband!

Just to clarify: My daughter is in a relationship! She is 15, and James is 17 but we give God all the glory and honor for this relationship! God brought them together, via facebook, and whether or not anyone likes or dislikes it, it is still a fact. We are very protective over our children. My husband is allowing Missie to be in this relationship because he felt she was ready for this. He is the head of our home and makes these decisions. He wanted James to come so we could meet him. James did this, and we liked him! So they are continuing their relationship with our blessing. Both sets of parents feel happy about this relationship! James had been praying for a holiness girl that believed in the holiness doctrine as he did. If this relationship does continue and God leads them to marry each other; it will be received with great joy on the part of both families! It has been my desire, that Missie court, fall in love, and marry the same guy. It is wonderful if young people can marry their 1st true love. It doesn't always happen, but when it does, it is a wonderful thing! Missie is James' first love, and James is Missie's first love. I asked them point blank when James was here and they were together, as this subject came up.

James is moving here in Jan. to go to UBC. So he will be attending church with us every Sunday; Bro. Whitaker already told me he could. He loves our church, and is happy that he can be with Missie and attend our church.

You all have a great week!

You don't know me, but I read your blog from someone elses blog. Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that I met and married my first true love! We met a UBC...he was just 14 and I was just 16. I was very shy. He was very respectful. We did break up for a summer, but got back together after we saw one another with someone else.:) It can happen! We have been married for 18 yrs. this Oct. I hope everything works out for them.

Feel free to check out my blog...as boring as it is...to find out more about me if ya like!:)

Hi Mindy, thanks for your comment.
I did check out your blog! I love your love story. Missie and James are in God's hands. Whatever His will is for their lives; that is what we want. At this point we are very pleased with the way God is leading them! God bless you and your family.
