1. That despite our troubles and tribulations...having a relationship with God b/c of His son Jesus allows us to have a peace that surpasses all understanding. (Hence the house situation that is "okay"...really, we feel a total peace in our hearts and bodies...no tension....a little baffled perhaps...but nothing else. Knowing and trusting God is SO GREAT!! :) Made me think of this passage this morning when Ryan and I were "in such good moods"... :)
- "Yet this I call to mind and therefore I have hope: Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him." The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him" Lamentations 3:21-25
2. That no matter what I accomplish (besides childbirth which is more of a "I contributed to the world feeling")...there is nothing that makes me feel like I have just conquered the world like actually cleaning (really scrubbing floors, toilets, sinks, tubs, etc.) my house. (Why is that?)
3. That even though I put down Ryan and Rosie as the people who write this blog....it's mostly just me (Rosie) and probably always will be as I am the self designated "family historian" and like to talk which translates into typing on the computer...
4. Hmm....That we can make plans and not only does God have a different idea for us sometimes...but our children and their schedules/sicknesses/etc. (like WE kept them up/out to late the night before and now they are totally ruined for two days) keep us guessing sometimes.
Okay, I think that's it for right now....I hope you have a marvelous day! P.S. The pic above is with a 60mm lens I tried out at the camera store, can you tell a difference on blog posting?

Yes, I think the picture is sharper and the color is better. Am so thankful for your happy ending on the house. God tested your faith, last night and rewarded you with your trust in him. We will praise him always. :)

Hi there, this is the first time i am actually responding to a blog. Fun!
Neil and I, well Jack too, had such a great day with all of you, we need to do that mroe often. It was so relaxing and peaceful. We can not give thanks enough for you guys. I can't wait till Little Ben and Jack can actually go outside and play with Caleb in the backyard. :) He is such a wonderful big brother. It has been such a blessing to know you and to be apart of each others lives.
The picture looks more clear and i can actually see the drool on Ben's chin...what more could you ask for. So cute. :) he looks so happy, maybe he loves the lense too. No, Ryan, I am in no way persuading Rosie to get the new lense, but it does look good. They all look good though, but if you are asking to tell the difference, i think there is one. The pictures are more crisp and have a clear edge, if that makes sense!?! You should see the difference on printing too, i bet you can really tell.
Sorry to hear about the new place, things happen for a reason, he knows what he is doing, everytime he tosses a challenge out there, he is building strength for tomorrow and then some.
Anyways, I love reading the blog (I depseratley need to start one), well maybe not it would be so lengthy, i feel like i could type on here forever, sorry so long, my first time...
We Love you guys!
Talk soon.

Thank you Adirenne!! You are so right! That which does not kill us only makes us stronger right?? That is so easy to say and believe when things are going well :) I think you're right on the pic, I am going to have it printed. I know the 35, 50, and 60 mm have unblievable clarity...maybe in the future...:) I will get working on your pics soon! :)
