My favorite blog post this week:
No blog reading last week, didn't get around to it.


Blog Hopping (a new discovered blog you would like to share with the readers):



No words needed (favorite photo or picture, yours or others you want to share):

Lesson learned the past few days:
Oh boy, so many, but I guess the biggest ones is again, to leave it in the Lord's Hands and to Let go. When you get a call from the school nurse about one of your children, it literally feels like you got punched in the stomach, it's the most helpless, hopeless gut wrenching feeling you can ever experience. I once again had to remember that God was with her when I couldn't be and that He would be with her through it all too.


On my mind:
My beautiful girl, hoping for a swift recovery to her broken wrist.


Devotionals, Scripture Reading, Key Verses:

I want to know Christ and the power of his resurrection and the fellowship of sharing in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death.

Philippians 3:10
