Wow, God has blessed me with another year with my amazing husband and wild but wonderful sons. We have had some lows , we have had some highs. You truly cannot hit rock bottom when God is holding you in his arms. I have decide that i want to blog more . Then put together all my blogs and write a book haha. That would be great the entire family would then be kissing butt. But this blog is going to be about my past year. We have had a couple losses this year. First, Gramma Orr she has went to be with the Lord in March. We were expecting this. She had been in the hospital since before Thanksgiving with congestive heart failure. The weird thing is every year it seemed that she was in there. Now, about gramma Orr she was a strong woman who loved children. there were times that she drove me up a wall, but when she was in the hospital we had told here we had to move out of our house, because the lovely landlord sold it. She just looked at me and asked me if we were coming back home (my father in laws house). She was a loving and caring woman who i did admire and love very much. The other death we have had is Jacob's brother Toby who was only 25...he had gotten out of jail on a Thursday and passed away on Saturday night Sunday morning. Toby was one of those guys that could out talk a woman...haha..i truly loved him...he had his flaws but he did have good qualities she was funny, caring he had a 2 year old lil girl...it was so hard on everyone here, of course his father who is still muddling through but doing better each day thanks only to an amazing God. There have been positive and joyful times this year. Jacob and I have become members to the most amazing church. Harvest community church we absolutely love this church and our amazing church family. Please visit their sit at www.harvestpa.org and listen to our great preacher(s) preach the amazing word of our savior. We had the children dedicated this year. Which in itself was wonderful. I cannot talk enough about the amazing love of our Savior who gave his life for me and you so that we may be washed clean. I started a job in may in a personal care home where I have met people that are so wiling to share about their past. God has blessed me with this job. O and after a year and 1 month my husband has found a wonderful job and I was blessed enough to be able to cut my hours at work. The boys are doing great in school (at home) Isaac is now working at a 1st grade math level and has passed his addition test and now working on subtraction and putting his letters together and making words..Lucas is such a goofball he does anything for a laugh, which has made him a little difficult to teach haha. God has blessed my family with his love and adoration. Our savior never ceases to amaze me with his love and works. I am looking into doing alot this year for the new years resolution, i have decided to do it opposite . every year i make the same resolutions.1. be a more Godly woman and mother and wife2. read my bible more3. lose weight4. quit smoking a biggie with me5. be more appreciative of what God has given meso this year i am doing things different 1. not putting God first, be a horrible mother and wife2. never read my bible3. gain so much weight i cannot fit into the car4. smoke 2 packs a day5. never be greatful to GodI figure if i made it like this then i can accomplish the first set lol....so all in all goodbye 2009 it has been a year of sorrow and joyhello and welcome 2010 can't wait what is in store for the Orr clanand last but not leastTHANK YOU TO MY LORD AND SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST FOR MAKING THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICE JUST FOR ME.
