Update On The Courtship

I know you are all probably wondering what has happened to me. Well...I'm still here. Since the new year things have been a bit crazy. We had a lot of family and friends over on New Year's Eve to play pictionary (this has become an annual event it seems). We ate and laughed and had a blast until a few seconds before midnight. Then we prayed in the new year together. That is always the highlight of the night for me.

Kristina's sweetie (Josh) got to be with us New Year's night and got to know a few of our family members and how crazy they are...LOL!! It was a blessing getting to have him with the family for the new year.

The courtship is going well. God still seems to amaze us as to how wonderful His perfect will is. When something is right...it is right. And when God is in it...it can't help but be right. They are already goo-goo over each other. They sit and stare at one another and they take picture after picture of one another. They are taking much time to get to know one another. It amazes me at how much those two have in common. Not only in their beliefs but also in the things that are their favorites. I've never seen two people with so much in common. It really is amazing to me. Josh comes over quite a bit right now to spend time with Kristina since his place of employment is on shut-down until next Monday. Also the past few days I have not felt well so I haven't felt up to blogging.

Please continue to pray for them. They are seeking God's will on some things and do not want to let themselves interfere in those things. We all know how we can tend to let ourselves and what WE want get in the way. And when we do that...things get messed up and we end up having to learn to seek His will and follow His will.

Jessica's pregnancy is going really well. She is already showing and that excites me to no end. She is so sick though. The progesterone that they have her on to help with the development of the baby is what is making her so sick. That is normal. She has been sick to the point of vomiting on a regular basis for a week or so now. Please continue to pray for her. She tries not to complain because she is thankful that things are going along so well...but she is tired in body from the pregnancy and from the being so sick. Ronnie is also having to look for a job since the company he was working for through a temp agency let all the temporary employees go. Please pray that the Lord give him wisdom of where to go for a job and that God's will be done in this situation. It's tough for any of us to go through but when you are a newly married couple expecting a baby....it is even tougher.

I will be back to posting more regularly soon I hope. I pray all of you had a wonderful New Year and that you are looking for great things to happen in 2009. I know I am!!!
