Vulnerable look into my day on Sunnybrook

God I want to leave a legacy to my kids, I know I can’t do it in my own strength, I know I can’t do it for anyone but you, I know I can’t do it.. To make them happy, I know I can’t do it to get approval, but God, I have to do stuff, I have to have a life, I don’t have one, I want a life, I am not sure what you are after in me, I am not sure what this bit of me proving myself, of me shining, of me, getting approval, or doing it, or showing Ben, I can do it, or Lucas, or Teagan I can do it or anyone but you.

I guess, I need to show no one I can do anything, I should just be, I am trying, I guess that is what I am doing wrong still I am trying still to do something, I am trying to have a PLAN.  

Ok no plan of mine... You are the planner, I keep trying to have this plan this schedule, find the magic formula, 1 +2 +3 find this great fix, and it will all come together, and all the angels will sing great hallelujahs, and smoke will fill up the room, and you will bless it, you mean that is not how it happens, come on, you gotta be kidding me...  I working so hard at figuring out the RIGHT WAY ALL THE STINKING TIME... 

Wake up there is no right way, there is only the fishes and the loaves, the breaking up of my mistakes, my little, my weakness, my less, my everyday, of I don’t know hows, and you know how to do everything, you come down, to pick me up everyday, you never shy away from my brokenness, you never are afraid of how yucky how messy I get you still love me, you never are afraid of how deep I think I have gone, you come right after my heart, and you grab, with all your might, as soon, as you see me turn you lounge, for me, and embrace, me, your love is overwhelming, your love, washes, every place, that I could not even imagine, that it could touch, in an instance, you turn my hopelessness, into a fountain of joy... You amaze me God... You are Amazing... I am in awe of you, in awe of you, you do not deny your loving kindness... You are amazing!!!

This is the legacy you want to leave your children :show them how to take what they do have to God and let them watch how God uses it to feed the multitudes, not to show them you can do everything in your own strength.

 TRUE LOVE ORIGINAL SUBWAY ART..  and ship it to the winner:)

Hello adventurous.. daring Homemakers ... did anyone take my challenge???  Did you take time and put yourself first, and actually ask yourself, what does my HEART want??  Not easy is it...but I told you if you started on this ADVENTURE... and took the RISKS...YOU WOULD EMBARK ...ON AN EXCITING AND REMARKABLE EXPERIENCE...  and find out what God really intended for you and your HEART... or you could just keep doing what you are doing and getting what you are getting... But if you expect DOING WHAT YOUR DOING AND GETTING DIFFERENT RESULTS THAT IS INSANITY ACCORDING TO BEN FRANKLIN, THAT MIGHT ANSWER ALOT OF YOUR QUESTIONS... IT SURE DID MINE... I KEPT DOING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER, AND DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY NOTHING HAPPENED...

Think of this, God created the human body as an example to us, the human heart must pump blood to itself first to survive, or it will not work, that is why we must find out WHAT OUR HEART IS IN NEED OF FIRST OR WE WILL NOT BE OF ANY GOOD TO ANYONE... ONE MORE EXAMPLE... PLEASE IF YOU ARE TRAVELING ...WITH YOUNG CHILDREN... GIVE YOURSELF THE OXYGEN MASK FIRST... then give it to your child... AGAIN GREAT EXAMPLE, IF YOU ARE NOT GIVING YOURSELF WHAT YOU NEED TO LIVE, THEN THOSE AROUND YOU WHO NEED YOU WILL NOT GET ANYTHING FROM YOUR LIFE..

take time for you make sure you follow me once we hit 25 followers I will put them in the drawing and will do it that day for the winner

Making a Home and Home Making~ Adventure

     Adventure, I have decided, that making a home and  home making are adventures... both very different.  I like the word adventure, it's meanings include 'an undertaking usually involving danger and unknown risks'... CHECK  'the encountering of risks'... CHECK 'an exciting and remarkable experience'... CHECK and lastly 'an enterprise involving financial risk'...  CHECK. 

   So I hope you join me on this Adventure, if you dare, if you are ready for some fun, some tears, some encouragement, some laughter.  Mostly you will feel at home, and you will feel validated, you feel understood, you will hopefully find a place that adds to your ADVENTURE. 

My number one core value, bit of advice, rule of thumb, base it all on, back it up, personally, and this Yellow Farm House on Sunnybrook Lane..about making a home..first starts with you.. who ever you are. So if you are a single woman, a married woman, a teenager, a dad, a man, doesn't matter even if you live alone.  Making a HOME, has to do with who you are in your heart, and you can and should be caring for that place every day, because out of it Flows the Fountain of Life.

Take a minute or two today a get quiet a listen and see if you can hear, what your own heart wants...write it down, see if you are surprised, see if it was easy or not??
