First Blog...Enter at your own risk

Dear Blog world,
 Ok, so this is my first blog....I have been wanting to do this for a while now, but how to find the time, what to write about, and trying to keep this ADD brain to focus on ONE thing at a time.....SQUIRREL... is going to be tricky! So hang on for dear life or I may lose you with my scattered thoughts and ideas.
 Well, I may just make this one short and sweet to get me rolling.
 I am a 29 year old who has been dragged(mostly willing) across the country following my husband's career along with our two children. We have been married for 9 awesome(but bumpy) years! We are from Plant City, FL. Our first adventure was all the way to Washington, DC. in Maryland, then to Oklahoma City, OK, and we are currently just south of Memphis, TN. Now, I do have to say that it was hard to move away from all you have ever known and who you have ever known! But, I can say that the Lord had a reason for every single move and I would not go back and change a single thing. I am thankful for a God who is the author of the BIG picture and stays patient with my kicking and whining until, in His perfect timing, He reveals it to me!
 So, let me shorten this up.....SQUIRREL....That is only funny if you have seen the movie "Up". At anytime the dog in the movie will be talking then stops right in mid sentence and yells "squirrel", and points, then goes right back to talking. That describes the function of my brain in a nut shell!
 Anyways, so we have been away from "home" now for almost 7 years and I really love it now. Nothing against my family back "home" or anything, but now I must focus on my own family and what is best for us. The Lord has led us here for a reason. We are part of an awesome missions style bapticostal church:) and we are right where God wants to use us in His awesome ways! We joined a small group at the perfect timing.....THAT in itself will be a whole other blog! He has really opened our eyes to the world and shown us things that we would have NEVER seen had we stayed in our little, comfy, cozy hometown in FL. Not that God is not there too! He would have met us right there too had we stayed, but MAN when you are obedient to Him and follow His guidance you cannot imagine where He will take you and what He wants to show you! And how He wants to use you and bless you!! Thank you Lord!
 Ok, so now we are at a new chapter in our lives and it is called homeschool! Yay! Not what I would have said a couple of years ago though! I would have called you insane had you told me I would even consider this as an option! You catching my drift? I CANNOT do anything like this in my own strength!! My family back in FL can back me up on that atleast! They may not agree with what we are doing but that is only because the mentality on HOW I am doing this has to change first! God does not call the equiped, He equips the called. AMEN. I will give you an idea of what I was like as a student. My mother was lucky if I brought home a C on the report card or on anything for that matter. I cared more about boys, partying, skipping school and lunch more than anything else. By the way I am NOT glorifying that in any way. So yes, I can see where the idea of me teaching my children would be cause for panic! And that is kinda what we did when I first felt the tug in my heart from the Lord to do this. My husband was not totally on board for a little while, but I did not give up and just prayed that if this is truely what He was calling us to do then my hubby would feel the same a get on board. And of course the Lord had a perfect plan to bring him on board in His perfect timing. And here we are today, being blessed by this opportunity to teach and learn right along with our kids. God is Good. That is all I need to know and rely on to get us through this. He has provided all that we have needed to get his adventure going and to keep it going.  Anything I can think of worrying about He has taken care of...what to teach...how to teach two...what books...what subjects...what money!? We know if we Seek First His Kingdom the rest He takes care of. His Word promises this and I am a living testimony of that truth!
So much for staying short and sweet....This was a little of this and a little of that, but I will try to blog on more specific topics as I blog with the Lord's guidance. Thank you for reading! God Bless!
