The trip was great! My sweet baby boy and puppy traveled beautifully and both slept majority of the time. Praise The Lord!
Now I have a few moments to write a little post!
So far my life has looked like this:
We are chipping away slowly but surely {ok... I am doing more snuggling the baby then unpacking}.
We had our first church service this morning and I am overjoyed!!!!
My mother-in-love thought that service started at 10:00, so when we got there at 9:56 we were very happy to find out church actually started at 10:30! We will probably have to trick ourselves again next week to get there on time. {anyone else like this?}
We absolutely ADORED the service and really felt welcomed. I feel at complete peace now.
I was scared in the beginning and during the moving process, I didn't see how this was a good thing.... But God is always faithful. I keep learning this over and over and over again. He is faithful.... And I desire to be in His will. Even when it's uncomfortable. Even when it's hard. Even when it's an inconvenience. Even when I don't understand. Even when I am unsure. I still desire to stay where God wants me and leave when He says to. I am learning this in a new way. And at church The Lord just reconfirmed it.
Is The Lord showing you anything lately? Anyone else learning this kind of trust?
Yielding and love - Monica

What a great trip! And I love that term - Mother *in-love*! Awesome! I think I might start using that!
I know that God is trying to teach me to trust. But for whatever reason (probably because I'm having a hard time giving up a certain part of my life - wanting to have a child) I'm having a hard time because life as of late hasn't been what I've pictured, in other words MY expectations...in getting married, wanting to have a baby, wanting to stay at home to take care of the little one(s). Yes, I have a great husband! But I don't have a baby yet. I miscarried the only baby I have known in May. We have a new puppy. But when I asked God for a baby, I didn't mean a furry one! (tongue in cheek). I know in my head He does ALL things well and He is good, because of what I have seen Him do and who I know Him to be. And I know that when I look back or even in the midst, I will be like WOW! I just wish I were there.
I don't want to be a "Debbie Downer" and I may not even make sense right now but thank you for letting God show Himself through your life, in the hard times and the fun times!
