| This week I asked God to bless our tithe... I got a salary increase that was unreal from my boss 2 days later. This week we prayed that God would help us find Edmond (the old blind deaf weenie dog)... Allen found him alive the next day. This week we prayed that God would provide for one of our youth who was in need... we got a text the next morning that God had provided exactly the need. This week was my first week to go to 2 meetings with architects without an engineer beside me... I was scared, but they both went great. This week I have been blessed! Im very thankful to God for all of the answered prayers and helping me face my fears and accomplish what I never thought I would accomplish. God is a good God. I am unworthy. | | |
| I have been thinking about love recently. What is love? Is it running through the front yard throwing a football and being tackled in a pile of raked leaves? Is it jumping on the trampoline in the rain together? Is it going to the movies and holding hands? Or eating dinner at Cajuns on your anniversary? Is it laughing so hard that you cry while making fun of your husband's favorite football team playing on TV while you sit upsidedown on the couch? Is it dancing to a silly song and not being embarrassed of your terrible dance moves? Or is love when he comes home with my favorite energy drink (rain) and my favorite candy (sour patch watermelons) and knowing that he thought of me today? OR Is love washing dishes after he cooked dinner? Putting clothes from the washer to the dryer when you hate doing that core the most? Is it scrubbing the toilet and watching the soap scum go down the tub drain with scrubbing bubbles? Or is love trying to cook dinner to only find out that you burned the meat and over seasoned it anyways? Or is love taking the dirty sheets off the bed and realizing that a King size comforter wont fit in the washer but will def overflow it? Or is love moving the couch to get all the dust bunnies in order to combat those terrible allergies? What is love? Is true love the fun parts of a relationship or is true love tested by doing the things you don't really enjoy doing, but you do them because you love them just that much? This thought had me thinking a lot lately. | | |
| I went to dinner tonight with my sisters. It was nice. I havent just hung out with them in a long time. If there is one thing I know, I can always depend on my sisters to hold me up when times get rough. Its what we do. The Hull Daughters aren't weak ...thats for sure, but when we go thru things we know for sure that we can be there for each other. I think thats why God gave us sisters... so save each others lives when we get sick and pass out on the wood floors because of the pretty green color in the cough suyrup we are taking... or to dream dreams to protect each other of things to come in the future...or to laugh at each others crooked toes or crazy situations that only happen to the Hull daughters. Part of it might contribute to the fact that we all inheriated mom's traits of attaction people with chemical imbalances.... yet not every wanting to attact them at all. Or the stubbornness that Dad gave us that makes us try til there is no reason to try any longer... but we are going to still try because we never give up on the first resistance of whatever we are striving to achieve. There are many things that have made us who we are and how we are... but one thing is for sure. The fact that we are so tight nit will hold us thru any storm that tries to shake us...God is the root of our strength and thats another reason we should thank our parents I guess. They have left a legacy in us that we will pass on to our childrens children. | | |
| I think xanga has died... no more comments...thats ok though... Im not that interesting anyways. I think in thier process of trying to make xanga more fun... they have made it more confusing for me. I have no idea what a pulse is........ and I dont notice when I have messages or "friend requests"... its just weird. Leave the blog as a blog... let it be... its functioning just fine how it is! Wait...Im suppose to think "change is good change is good"... wrong attitude again... Ill get it one of these days. So far we have nearly raised 1000 for the youth to go to camp...not quite that much, but close, unfortunately that only covers 1/3rd of the cost for the youth to go to camp. The other (almost) 2000 is due near the end of May...so we will be starting more fund raisers soon. I have to say though that God has really provided for the youth this year. He is a great God and I know if he can provide that 1000 as easily as he did, he can provide the 2000 the same way. Im very thankful for the help I have had in the fund raising this year (SARAH) I could not have done it without you girl! Keep it up! We are going to be selling $1 raffle tickets for 2 day passes to Magic Springs starting on Wed night. If anyone would like to buy one, please hit me up! Or you can buy like 5 and up your chances to win! ha. :) If you see us standing at walmart please dont yell obsenaties at us while we beg for your money to go to camp! ha. We are going to do another raffle, but Im going to ask my Aunt who cuts hair in Benton to do it mostly so that the youth arent overwhelmed with raffle sales. Its a raffle for a lot of stuff.... including... 2 lamps from Ashley's furniture, $10 gift card to Wester Sizzilin, $25 gift card to Moe's, Free car wash from Razorback car wash... maybe a few other things attached to it as well, but overall its a pretty cool little raffle too. Ok...thats all I have to say for now! peace... | | |
| I have caught the bug from Sarah, Tonight I emailed about 20 different places to see if we can get some garage flooring donated for the youth/children's rooms at the Village. It is in dire need of some nicer flooring! Please pray for Favor with at least 1 of these places to want to donate! Haley | | |
