IF MY LIFE HAS A THEME...

If my life has a THEME....I'm sure it is "moving again." Those who know me know that I've moved over 70 times and it doesn't appear that God is finished with my moving yet! The reason I add God...is that scripture says, "The mind of man plans his way, but God orders his steps." I figure some of my steps could have been out of the Lord's will, but that would make God small, right?

Prayer has been answered, my son's wife has returned and I am heading back to Florida after enjoying a wonderful season with six of my large brood of grandkids. Looking at the temps in the other locations where family abides...as well as here in MO and noticing that it's still in the 80's in Florida, that is a GOOD thing as Martha Stewart likes to say.

Either way, it has to be that way--for now at least. We want to sell the condo in FL and living inside a 3 bedroom house with 6 kids, especially when Shane plans to do some finishing up on the work he began, is a good time to return to warm weather.

It's been a wonderful bonding time with these children and I cherish every moment. I hope they recall our time together as they grow older and come for visits to Florida until I can return--possibly to rent an apartment near them! You see moving IS my life 'theme.'
