God is So So So Good,

I have just been living it up lately,

soaking in His presence. Pretty much having

church where ever I am at…in the car driving,

at the sink washing dishes, even doing the laundry.

I dont know how i have survived the last 28 years of my life not living like I am.

God is my provider, my source. Nothing can shake me or move me.

SO i want to know people…this one question, AND PLEASE PLEASE answer

in the comment section.

WHAT HAS GOD DONE FOR YOU THIS YEAR SO FAR?

Update for those of you who had not heard

we had to take our kitty Pepper to the pound last week,

she had a UTI and i didnt have the funds to take her to the Vet.

The People down at the pound were really nice and they are getting her

taken care of and spayed. This makes me so happy, she really is a sweey Kitty and she

will make a family a great addition to their family.

We love you Pepper and will miss you.


Yellow

Yellow,

Have i ever told you that i love the colour yellow?

I do, it’s bright, cheery, uplifting.

I want things around me that brighten my day, and it that means painting

everything around me yellow, i gosh darn will.

This cupboard my Brother and wood working teacher made me for my Birthday.

I came up with the design, and made the measurments, although when it got to my house

we discovered it was a full 2 inches taller than my kitchen ceiling.

Not pointing fingers, but i dont think it was ‘I’ that made the mistake.

I love it….i no longer have to look at a smelly trash can…and i also have

a place to put my growing collections of coffee mugs.

Thank you Jabin, Mr Fred and my Mommy. I Love you so much.

Can it really have been SIX years since this sweet child came into my life? Those years have flown by, each day filled with the joy that he brings me. He has been easy since birth, pushed him out and thought wow i could do that again, he hardly cried, loved to lay in his bed, swing in his swing, and just take in life.  He is such a unique child, not moved by what others think about him, he is who he is.

I look forward to watching him grow into the man of God i know he is…learning to love God with every fiber of his being. I see him preaching when he is older, his quiet confidence will win many to the Lord.

Everyday i am amazed by him, the things he sayes, how well he is doing at school, how incredible good he is at math, which he does not get from me (so ya know)

I love being a Mother to Boys, The make me laugh, and feel loved in ways that are hard to describe, unlike most Mothers, I look forward to my son being a teenager, i picture him and Ian always trying to make ‘Mom’ laugh and doing things because it will make me happy.

He is Quiet, Mysterious, Loving, Compassionate & Strong

Change

The Change in the weather came upon me so

suddenly,

with it, a busy month ahead.

can it already be 4 weeks away till ‘Teen Break’?

a very busy week in the Korv household, thank goodness,

this year i was able to swap some babysitting with my mom.

She is going to watch my 3 for a week,

then the next week while her and 2 of my sisters

are gallivanting around France i will have sweet Addy with me.

This will make things so much easier in us.

To be out in the sun all day then to come home

to the kids trying to tell us all about their adventures, its

a bit much to take in. So i thank you my dear Mother.

Your a life saver.

I tackled the kids room today, sifted through toys,

put hotwheels back in there homes, how they fly

over to the big toy box i’ll never know :)

i also took up the carpet in the closet, its the last

of the last, of the original carpet from when we moved in.

soaked in cat pee, now i can open the closet door

without wanting to throw up.

I am in the market for a twin frame, even if its just a metal frame. Adia

broke her bed jumping on it, and i believe it is beyond repair.

For now a mattress on the floor suits her JUST fine.

I called my bud Chuck today and requested the use of his

trailer, i am in the mood to cart off junk in my backyard,

will it ever be done? I think so…not much more left,  soon

i will have a yard i will like to look at while

i sit on my porch swing and sip iced tea in the afternoons.

I want to get it out of the way before it hits the triple digits that

i love so well.

Yes i am rambling, felt i needed to do that today,

no photos to post.

Soon though,

Lovely Lennon’s 6th birthday is in NINE short days

WOW…..6 years old

Pre-Valentines outing

2010

We wanted to spend the day as a family,

lately we have been so busy, running around like

a chicken with his head cut off, hehe

We started by picking lennon up from

a sleep over, then went to Mickey D’s for breakfast,

not my choice, but the kids enjoy it.

after that we decided a little time at the park would be nice,

while the kids played rudy annoyed me. :)

This was a day of, “lets pick on Jacci, cause it makes me laugh day”!

When the kids started to invade our blanket, we decided a

walk was in order.

The park was packed, all kinds of people out walking, jogging,

people in the lake kayaking, and this other thing where you stand on

a huge board and paddle standing up…pretty cool looking.

When we got down to the bridge, rudy got prices for the paddle boats…

we have never done this as a family, i did when i was about 11…quite the memories

there..(huh Jess?)

Being the mother, i was terrified that Lennon was going to fall out, there

are no seat belts on the darn thing, Ian sat in the front in between us.

so i had my arm around the back grabbing lennons coat,

which he kept yelling at me to let go…i dont

know why i am so protective of him.

Half an hour in one of those is plenty of time…good work out.

The walk home was filled with crying kids, saying their legs hurt.

huh! i think we were the ones peddling the boat.

Home, lunch, naptime….lovely day out.

I have so many people in agreement with

me that this is going to be my year to get my bug.

I have such amazing friends!

I am in LOVE with a BUG

2010
02.01

Up the road from my house, at a used car lot has been this bug,

that i need, i want, i love

So i decided that i just need to call those

things that are not, as though they ARE!

and go test drive it.

I have never drove a VW bug, rudy i think was

hoping i didnt like it, but oh no

quite on the contrary, i fell

deeper in love, being surrounded by

that sweet vw smell.

My heart skipped a beat, for sure.

My favorite Brit and i went out and about…my swooning, her laughing

The one thing i hate about the car is these horrible ugly hubcaps,

while driving we hit a patch of dirt, where the road is being worked on,

I heard a noise, looked back and there is that ugly thing rolling off down

the road, nearly hitting a pedestrian on a bicycle…whoops

Only would that have happen with Michell and I.

Here’s my prayer…

Dear Lord, you said to ask and we will receive, the desires

of our hearts, I desire to own a VW…so in Jesus name,

i call forth that i have the money to pay cash for this or any

VW that is the one for me.

In Jesus Name Amen!

Best day Ever!

So my wonderful stud of a husband told me today,

“man, you got a wii fit today, I gave you $20 for no reason,

chocolate cake from Shugrues, and ‘colored’ with you…

To bad its not your birthday, i would be the best husband EVER”

Isn’t he sweet?

I tecniclly didnt GET to use the wii fit today,

he ordered it, apperantly its in HIGH demand of late and NO

store has it in stock, not even Amazon, and if they do

people are selling them way over the store rate.

crazy huh?

Anyways, R. is the best husband ever, hands down, no

questions asked, without a doubt, to the end of time

the love of my life.

Scriptures
...we should live soberly, righteously, and godly,
in this present world. (Titus 2:12)

If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask
of God that giveth to all men liberally,
and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. (James 1:5)

...be thou an example of the believers,
in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in
faith, in purity. (1 Timothy 4:12)
