Please Pray...

For my cousin's family, he died in a car accident last night.

Moving

Isn't usually much fun... Until you get where you are going anyway. I am sure I will be blogging more about our new adventure as soon as we get settled in.

Happy Anniversary

Well I am a little late but I will say it anyway. Happy Anniversary to the most wonderful man in the world! (for the record I wasn't late in real life, just in the blogosphere.)

Looking Forward, Looking Back

Yesterday was my last day at my job. We are moving to a new state and I will be starting a new job in September. It is a better paying job in a nice place and my husband will be in a very good school this fall. I am so thankful for all of the blessings we have received this past year and I know my prayers, one after another, have been answered. It is amazing how I used to be so cynical and felt that life was either only a product of chance, or destined to be miserable. I used to have a very deep seated notion that I didn't deserve good things in life and if things were going well, it was simply too good to be true. These are self fulfilling prophecies, if you expect everything to go poorly in life, chances are things will. I am so grateful to have found the power in hope and joy in my life. Hope and joy awakened in me by our Lord Jesus Christ. It is as if, in opening my heart to God and what the Church teaches, a garden has begun blooming in my soul. Thanks be to God!
