Hello, again.....hello

I'm back! No, I haven't fallen off the earth, as I'm sure many of you were thinking. It's been pretty crazy around here. Jacob has had an ear infection since Christmas, and if you've had a child with an ear infection, you know how difficult it can be! The poor baby has been so fussy and irritable. (which can make for an irritable mama after three months of continual fussiness!) On top of that, he got the flu a couple of weeks ago. Then, of course, I got it, along with a sinus infection. Pretty sure I was close to dying, or at least I felt like it. I was sick for a week!

We're all doing much better now and the fussiness has somewhat subsided, which has me hoping the ear infection has cleared up. We're looking at tubes for the little guy if it's not cleared up by his next appointment, so say a prayer for him!

Our laptop screen no longer works so we've got the laptop hooked up to a monitor downstairs and it's "out of sight, out of mind" for me. (The screen not working may have something to do with being stepped on by all three kids, being dropped a couple of times, and pulled off the table.) The only reason to go downstairs is to do laundry and I avoid that at all costs! :)

At any rate, I apologize for my lack of posts. To be perfectly honest, I've been in a personal "blah" mode. It's been a difficult few weeks for me on all levels. By levels, I mean spiritual, physical, emotional, and mental. I felt like throwing in the towel on several occasions. But God
is good and His grace is sufficient.

Thankfully, I'm feeling rather ambitious and much like my old self again. I've got some thoughts on future posts running around in my head! Stay tuned!
