Appreciating single moms, moms whose spouses travel, and military moms...

Just have to say - God is SO good at giving me occassional reasons to taste the life of single moms or moms whose spouses are gone often...It's a LOT of work to be the only parent!

Joel doesn't really travel all to often...but when he does, I am so very thankful for him and all he does for us! This week Joel and the other Pastors from our church are at the Evangelism Conference in Dallas. Even though the kids are older - it's still a lot of work to be the only parent. The one to get them up and going in the morning, get breakfast, get them to school, get them from school, help with homework, get them in the shower, get them to bed, etc!

To all my friends out there who are single moms or the parent on duty the majority of the time - I SO appreciate and admire you! This week I have been praying for YOU -for strength, perseverance, patience, and rest. You are loved, you are treasured and you are precious!

To my wonderful hubby - I love and appreciate you! Thank you for all you do to help our family run smoothly! Can't wait til you get home Thursday!!!!
