Fears Relieved


My biggest Fear with my youngest son, is that he won't get the most out of school. I went and talked with his *special* teacher this morning. She says he is doing GREAT in her classroom.


His homeroom teacher is being kinda tough on him, but he needs to be pushed. The teacher that I spoke with this morning said she will talk with the other teacher and get a more suitable plan worked out for Tyler (my sweet little boy!) I reassured him before I left, while he was in the lunch room that I was very proud of him and not upset.


He is a wonderful loving little boy. He gave me a big hug and kiss {yep, right in front of his friends!} I do love him so much. :)


Feeling much better this morning, I threw my load of laundry in for the day ( down to 1 load a day now) big pat on my back! LOL and my home is getting more organized each day. Little by little! I am not stresses over it though... I know it will come together!


I bought a new center piece for my table yesterday. I love decorating for fall! the mornings have been alittle foggy and cool. You can tell the seasons are changing! above is my new center piece! nothing fancy, but makes the house feel more like HOME :)


Blessings to you today. May you feel God Presence surround you!

A Time To CLEAN






Today is the day to get back into cleaning and organizing my homeand I am starting in my closet! WOW is it a mess. My closet has been a catch all for storage.. things that I need to keep but dont know where to go with. (babybooks, first days of school, cards from babies and so on. I also have a dresser in there for Steve's clothes and 2 clothes rods. it is a nice sized closet, but has not been used to it's potential.

I bought some storage cubes ( wooden ) and stacked them in there along the longest wall and hope to be able to put some clothing in those. I have 2 dressers in my bedroom. One with a mirror and the other is a smaller old dresser that I would really like to get rid of..... hmmmmm, Maybe Steve can use that one in the shed??

We inherited an old office chair from Steve's great grandpa which has been occupying my closet for a couple of years now. (simply because we dont want the kids using it because it is in a fragile state.) I am hoping to add another shelf so I can store our camping stuff and christmas tree above the hanging clothes. Those have been sitting in my bedroom..... no wonder I never want company! My whole house is this disorganized. Looking around my earthly home makes me really look forward to the mansion that God is making for us. I can't wait to see the closets in there! :)

The picture posted above was taking right after I got the cubes together. I moved the dresser to the other wall. I plan to take another pic after I finish and will post that too! :)

as promised! Here are the after pics. It took me all day to get it the way I wanted it and now, it is something I can be proud off (and use again!) Now, On to the bedroom! I dont think I will post before pics of that, it's just to embarassing!
