I again slacked on my Friday coffee date vlog.. I am sorry.. I was all excited to try it again but then my oldest wanted to go shopping and the weather was going to be bad after lunch so off to the stores i went.. with 4 kids
3 under 6...

let's jut say that will not be happening again anytime soon..

Dear God, thank you for the power of prayer. Thank you for listening to us as we seek your help and guidance, thank you for answering your children. we are forever grateful for you.  Thank you for letting me know that what matters to me matter to you.

Dear husband, what a week... I am so thankful for you. thankful that you chose to seek God's help when we were not sure where to turn. thank you for not giving up on me , even when i made it almost impossible not to. thank you for loving me for better or worse and sorry this last week was one for the worse.

Dear R&C, thank you for listening when i needed it. thank you for not judging, for not trying to "fix" the problem but for listening. God knew that we needed some mediation and he used instagram to set that up! we are so blessed by you and I look forward to seeing how God will grow us closer in 2013.

Dear friends, I want you to know "i am back". I had a really off past 2 weeks and happy to say i am back. I will share more of those personal details later next week. just know that your comments, calls, texts, and emails were heard and greatly appreciated.

Dear self, you did it... you sought help when you needed it and I am proud of you. I know it was not easy to share he ugly, but you did and now you can heal, move on, and grow. remember to lean on God and he will guide your path...

Dear kids, I had a good time making pancakes with you this week. They were yummy, and i love how i have to cut you off because you eat too many. Thank you for being patient with me as i figure my mess out. You are all so wonderful and I love you all.

Dear Kohl's, Target, TJ Maxx, and Maurices, you are welcome. at least i know you will not be going out of business anytime soon.

Dear God, you are such a wonderful Dad. Your love is abounding in faithfulness, and for that I will forever be blessed.
