Day 17: I'm thankful for:

~Quilts 


~Quilts-I'm thankful for nice warm quilts! When I moved to northern Michigan to work at a camp and teach at a Christian school, I met this sweet friend! I loved spending time with her and her 3 kids. I was given this quilt as a Christmas present from her! My friend did an amazing job at making it! My favorite color is purple! I still have this quilt and think of that sweet family every time I get it out!

~My mother in law made us this quilt a few years ago. She also did a very good job on it and made 2 little pillows to match! It's a very cute quilt! We took it over the road with us!

Our 1st Miscarriage

The Story of our 1st miscarriage with Baby Nutter I am ready to share my story about having a miscarriage. They say there is healing in sharing.  What is every little girls dream? To grow up one day, get married, and have a baby. The day came when I got married, I couldn't wait to start a family! With much prayer Scott and I thought we were ready to start a family. We  had been trying for awhile and it didn't even seem hopeful. Every-time that   time of the month came around I would be sad that it didn't happen, time and time again. After what seemed like forever, I gave up on that dream of being a mom.  ~The day we found out our happy news~       I remember the day that we found out we were expecting. It was in the very beginning of December. I had finally talked my husband into letting me buy a test. He did not want me to be disappointed again. I was so nervous to even take the test even thought I was certain this time! I had waite...

          Christmas 2017 will always be a day to remember.  That day was filled with so much sorrow and yet I received the best gift ever. What? How is that possible?  Grab a cup of coffee and let me share our story with y’all. Our Baby's precious name        When Scott and I knew that we were expecting, we had a wave of many different emotions. We experienced great happiness, joy, fear, worry, and the unknown future of this precious baby. I wanted to be prepared as we had experienced a miscarriage before. Read about our first miscarriage here if you haven’t already:     http://jenny-s-journey.blogspot.com/2015/05/miscarriage.html?m=1 .   I knew that God was the only one who could see the future life of this baby. God would know how many days or weeks the baby would grow, if the baby would make it full term, and if there would be  any compilations. I didn’t want to have to experience ano...

Moving to the Lone Star State

                 Michigan is known for many things. One of them being a harsh winter. If you grew up in Michigan like I did, you know winter can come as early as October and stay as long as May. You may also view Michigan`s weather with the same perspective as my husband- long and cold and lasts for nine months! None the less, it is still just as beautiful. Take a look:           Before Scott and I were married he asked me if I would move to Texas with him. My response was "No, it is way too hot!" Throughout our marriage he continued to ask and my response was always the same. After a while, I realized that I hadn't even prayed about this decision. I had just said no because I didn`t want to move there. So, I decided to start praying about moving to Texas.           After a harsh winter, S cott had arrived at work late a few times because of the snow. One day, w...
