Nate

What a handsome guy, and he takes care of kids too! Nate was very supportive of my get away trip to Virginia! He took great care of the kids and the house was clean when I got home. I really thought I'd come home to quite a mess. James confided that they didn't clean until 15 minutes before they came to get me, but I told James that apparently, 15 minutes was enough. I had a wonderful and refreshing time in Virginia. God blessed my time there greatly. I came home with a vision for my life and a renewed focus. My primary mission right now is schooling my children. I have let go of many commitments so I can focus at home. It makes our days so much more pleasant when I'm not trying to get school done so I can do something else. I'm enjoying more down time with the kids and they are thrilled to have my full attention so much more often! God is so good!

YEA!! I wish we could chat, chat chat and catch up! Someday soon, hopefully! So glad you got away...we NEED that! Jesus needed it and took it! So glad He spoke to your heart and you came home refreshed and encouraged...makes a huge difference, huh? I was reminded today that a friend/mentor told me that she wasn't curently involved in a "minitry" because her children and husband were her ministry. How cool and true is that!?! They all need you more than ANYONE else in the world and God has you right where he wants you!! You're awesome Susan!
