Rainy Days and Monday!

Guten Tag,

Well, it is a rainy Monday in Germany and I have a headache that will not stop! What is new, ha! The kids are back on the buses this morning so it is back to normal when it comes to the noise factor outside my kitchen window! When I hear teen-agers talking, even in another language, and laughing, it brings back so many memories. Teens can be so dramatic and one minute so grown-up and the next minute so childlike. The hormones are wild and they are so often so uncomfortable in their  own bodies. I just wish they would realize that they do not need to grow up so fast it will all come in time but that is the nature of the beast ....I want to grow up NOW! God watch over them this is a really really crazy world out there today.

Lennie is going be so excited when he gets home and sees I have fixed his favorite, after pot roast, chicken tortilla casserole! I am going to make enough that he can eat it all week, if he desires, for lunch. He loves to have surprises when he walks up the stairs to the apartment door. He says he really get excited when he realizes the good smell is coming from our door! Does not take much to make Lennie happy. I am going to start doing holiday baking and making candy so I can send it with him to work. My oven is amazing...it has built in cook sheets and a roasting pan!

A friend sent me an e-mail through facebook that a friend of hers came up with 30 Days of Giving Thanks. I think this is a great idea and I plan to take some time each to reflect on the thing I am thankful for that particular day. Why don't you join in with us. God says we should all have grateful hearts and I have learned the more grateful I am the happier I am as a person. There truly is not one thing I need in this world at this point of my life but my relationship with the Lord, the love of my husband and family and good health...otherwise the rest is gravy...just rich wonderful gravy! I am blessed!

Today is Carrie and Matt's 4th anniversary. Now I am going to tell you these two have packed enough in 4 years to make me exhausted. They have lived in 5 or 6 places and have had two children and and Matt is getting ready to leave AGAIN! My children do not let grass grow under their feet or hearts....their lives makes our lives more exciting! Again....we are blessed!

Before I close I must ask for prayers for many. I just ask you pray for wisdom, courage and peace as they ride the storm of thier lives. This is happening to more than one family and person in our lives at the moment. I see old slew-foot trying to steal, kill and destroy but if I have anything to say about it.....GET OUT and leave these people alone! Let the BATTLE belong to the Lord. We must STOP giving into this awful world and all its enticements and get back to what is important living moral and Godly lives. ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH CHRIST JESUS!

Love ya........

Tschuss,
Debby
