This is just somewhere we want to go someday. Wonder if we will make it there.
Several years ago I read a book that encouraged me to be occupied with Christ. To think of Him as my occupation. I liked the picture that it left me with. I wanted to be occupied with Christ. I still want that.
David talked to me recently (he makes it home once in awhile)about walking with God through the day, and how important it is to mentally walk with Him, take things to Him, be with Him.
Somehow the reality often is that I lose sight of that and just see the laundry, the diapers, the mess, the barfs, another weekend alone (alone with four children...does that count?)and I forget to share it with Him.
I want to walk with God all day long.
We made pies and jello today and the kids and I are looking forward to Thanksgiving breakfast tomorrow cause we are going to have pies and jello. Jan and Alec have started helping out in the dishes department and I think it is wonderful. David comes home around lunchtime tomorrow to get some sleep and then we will do what we can to wake him up around dinnertime for pies and jello.
