Busy...
We've had a busy last couple of weeks. Trenten just came home from his last underway on the USS KEARSARGE (Hooray!!) We hope to have him home with us for the next year, at least. I've completed 2 classes for my MSN program in just under 12 weeks. We got pre-approved for our home loan, and are currently looking for a home to buy in the Jacksonville, NC area. We have enjoyed visits with family (although Trenten missed it :( And, we look forward to seeing Uncle Austin (the marine) this weekend!!! Lots of things going on, I'm trying to take the time to breath and to not be stressed out. The verse "Be still and know that I am God" is my moto for the the summer.

Exercising
Why is it that this morning I felt like I have never exercised in my life? I only went a week without it, and in that week I still did some active things... It's going to take me awhile to get to the point I was before...

Reflecting on Father's Day
As tomorrow comes, I am reminded about my own relationship that I had with my father. To say that this relationship was a disappointment is an under statement. However, I was told (maybe by my Mom) long ago that I should look to the heavenly Father as even my Father here on earth.
I am determined to look at the positive things today. So, I will say how thankful I am for a father-in-law who has willingly stepped up to act as my father. I can truly go to him with any issue or problem and know that I will get solutions or godly advice in return.
My husband is an incredible father to our son Breyten. It sometimes makes me sad when I watch them together seeing all the things that I missed out on in a father. But, I am so joyful that my son will not miss out on those things. Trenten willingly steps in to change diapers, clean up after feeding, playing, anything that needs to be done. He only had about a month with Breyten before he left again (not for very long this time though!) But in that month, Breyten and him formed a close bond. Breyten woke up today saying "dad" and has been saying "dadad" all morning long. He misses him! I am very thankful to have a husband who is such a wonderful father!
