I know it has been a long time....

I have to apologize that it has taken me so long to write.  I found myself going into a depression state with everything dealing with Josh.  It took me till one day I heard someone say, " If they are not losing sleep over you, then why are you losing sleep over them."  Wow what a statement.  I woke up that day and found myself smiling again and loving life.  I am now in this wonderful state with myself. I love who I am and am excited to see what the Lord does with me next. 

I completed my first speaking engagment where I shared my fathers store and my journey with 150 people at the Light the Night Walk Remembrence Ceremony.  It went so well that I was asked to speak again next year.  God is good and he is giving me strength to let go and look ahead.  I wonder if my Dad was looking down and listening to me. My mom came down for the event and helped me decorate.  This is a big step for her as she usually does not do anything like this.  We also walked half of the walk because my mom was so sore from the first lap. 

I am currently working on the Christmas Program at the school I work for.  I took this play I found and worked it so it would fit the music we are singing and here we go.  I am getting more excited as it comes.  Please pray that the children do a great job and have fun with it.

Please pray that God continues to use me during this time to do all I can for him that I couldnt do while I was married.
