What a month

February turned out to be a good month. Not only did we find out we are having a baby but I have been blessed spirtually. I was able to take some time and go on a ladies retreat in Lexington with some awesome women of God. We talked and the speakers were good but mainly God sent me Ellen. She is a lady from Mt Sterling Kentucky that prayed for me and God sent her for a reason. Have you ever been praying for something very specific and out of nowhere someone comes to you and tells you they have a work from God and it is about what you are asking God for? Well if not it kinda freaks you out but it happened. Then to top it off she said God told her that my name was Judy and she needed to pray for me....I lost it. I really need to hear Gods voice like she does. However, I am very grateful that I listened to the Lord and went on the retreat. See the Devil has made this pregnancy a real downer. He has attacked me with the sick bug so bad that I was bed ridden and really thought I wouldn't make it to the retreat. My God is bigger than the devil and he can't hold me down from gods blessing. I made it and was blessed. Then last night I made it to Ladies Coffee. This group of women are awesome. God is moving in our group and developing bonds that are trememdous. We are seeking God and there are going to be awesome things come out of this. We are reading the Power of a Praying Wife. It is really touching lives and opening up for some very good conversations. I look forward with this time with my new friends.
Ok so on a more personal note......my husband left for Utah on Wednesday of last week and returns home tomorrow. I have always prided myself on being very independent and not needing a man but WOW....I want him home. I have missed him so much and I really do need him. I promise you would have thought I dropped him off at the airport to go and fight in the war as much as I cried. I have been able to talk with him everyday and he is having a blast which in reality makes me mad because i am home sick with the kids. He will owe me though...LOL. I hope that the time apart does our marriage good. We all need a break sometimes.

Until next time,


God Bless
