The last couple of months have been busy to say the least.
I gave up my job as a childminder in October and can now concentrate on being a mum & I'm so blessed to have that privilege. I also have my new Stampin' Up! Adventure which has been a dream I had previously been to scared to fulfil. Crafting is my passion & I now get to share that passion with other people & pass on my crafting knowledge, I love it!
My Dad was taken into hospital with yet another angina attack which resulted in a triple bypass after a couple of weeks in hospital. His surgeon said he was lucky to be alive as the blockage in his heart was so large that he could have died at any time. I don't put this down to luck.
After around 2 1/2 months of trying we finally sold out house. It was high risk accepting the offer as our vendor wasn't playing ball & didn't want to accept our offer. We ended up having to offer a little more than we wanted to secure the deal but we knew it was the house for us.
There were some other things going on that I won't bore anyone with but the combination of events in my life left me pretty frazzled & unable to sleep but I clung on tight to my faith & prayed more than I have ever done! I will be totally honest & say there were moments when I thought God wasn't listening but then I am an extremely impatient person so I guess that was my lesson.
Last night I had the best night sleep, ever! I'm over whelmed by all the ways big & small my family has been blessed lately & I feel grateful, thankful & happy. I know there will be many more trials in this life but I have learnt that God really will be with me.
