House or Home

Hello my friends, family and fellow loggers,
Life has been really good as of late, well actually it has always been good, just sometimes I look at life through my earthly eyes, and I do not see the wonderful life that I have, that we all have. With the everchangining world that we live in, I / we tend to only see the negative, we all know that is all the news ever reports. I have gotten almost to the point where I don't watch the news, or read the newspaper, it is the same sad depressing stories day after day. However, this is not what I want to talk about today.....honestly I do not know what I want to talk about. Thus the reason for my lack of post, some days / nights I cannot wait to write to each of you, other days, I just get to this point and stare at the blank screen, not sure what to say. I feel like I have lots to say, but sometimes it just seems irrelevant to the world. Then I read some of the other blogs that read each day, and I get inspired. So for all you blogger out there, don't be a me and think that what you have to say is irrelevant, it is touching someone...so keep those fingers moving.
With 'IKE' over, the economy still dropping, train crashes because the engineer was text messaging and ran a red light, etc...etc.....the family and I are still going strong. The other day I was talking to the kids and I asked them did the new house feel like a home yet, or was it still just a house. I got some interesting answers, 'RED' said it was still a house, because it is so big, we all have our own lil house so we don't spend as much time together. ( I have to work on that one). The other girls said it is getting there, but they were so used to the old house, it is taking time. LM just said that it is a home, no exact reason....Momma just looked at me weird and I could see from her facial expression, she was thinking, 'where does he come up with these thoughts'!!!! Well, I think that it has become our home, although it was only been about 6 months, we have done some amazing things in our new house. First thing is we dedicated this house to our God, this is his house, we are there just for upkeep. By doing this, we know that our God will bless everything in our house, so that we can focus on serving him and not all the outside distractions that come with being a home owner. I say this is a home because this is where we pray together before each meal and at the end of each night as well as many times throughout the day. I say this is our home, because this is where we are raising our family, this is where we are going, soon our lil boy and girls will be leaving to begin their own adventures as adults, but this will still be their 'rock' to return to....this is why this is our 'home'.

Love ya all
