Finally... a moment to relax! Spring semester is always my least favorite semester! It is cold and rainy and everyone is sick. Finals are coming up and then this semester will be over, Hallelujah!! I have about 2 more years in college and then hopefully I will work for the FBI! But it is all up to the Lord and I have learned that you can never plan your future because you never know what will happen!
The other night I was having a pity party for myself because we are tight on money and I was really wishing we could just have a place of our own. I was in the car listening to music and the song "I Won't Give Up" came on. I got over myself right quick. That is the song I listened to on repeat when Melvin was with immigration for 5 weeks. God was telling me to get over myself because things could be so much worse! It has been 8 months since he was taken from us and sometimes I forget how hard it was. The Lord has blessed us so much and he reminds me of his blessings every day. Looking back I know that the Lord was behind Melvin being taken into immigration custody because it is the only way we could apply for him to become a citizen. While he was off their radar we couldn't apply because he would have had to go back to Honduras for 10 years. So since he became on their radar we could begin the process and we are still waiting for a reply. It is a very long process.
Allie turned 2 last week. I am so grateful that we could celebrate her birthday together! She was so very precious! She is growing up everyday.
I know this has been a rambling post but I just wanted to share some of my thoughts! :)
Until next time!
