Hello! I'm currently working on sorting through 588 photos from Emma's bday party (thank you, Thomas!) SO...since little darling is at a new level of playing and mama involvement and I have lots of catching up at home to do - yes, I have neglected our home for about the last month! YIKES! - thought I would share a couple of vids that I caught up on this am!
As some of you know, I enjoy watching Elevation Church sermons online. I learned about their church through one of my fave women out there, Lysa TerKeurst (amazing encourager, author, mama and gal!).
A few weeks back, when we started potty training, we stayed home from church, so I saw the first message in a great series...when I hopped online this am to catch up, to my surprise, Lysa was the one that delivered the final message in the series! Catch it here. If you'd like to catch the previous ones, scroll to the bottom of the screen in the link and you can select each one of the 4 sermons at your leisure ;0. I encourage watching them ALL! Good stuff.
PS on the potty training: she's all good! we've gone about 10 days without a daytime accident, and I think night time we're about 80% dry nights, if not more?! She's been waking up about 2 am for the past week and most of the time we go potty then right back to her room to go back to bed. So proud of her! The first 3 days were tough, and yes, the bathroom seems to be our new hangout on some days, but enjoying my time with my little lady so much. She talks up a storm while we're 'hanging out' in there ;0 I should make a post just of some of the fun things she's saying.
Have a great week, all!

...and another...
Had the HUGE blessing of my mom taking Em for a few hours on Thursday while I baked and put together Tyler's bday cake (pics to come as I'm in the midst now;0)
I love alone time...maybe a little too much. I just love to be brain dead sometimes, but I also love the internet and the opportunity to be able to listen to different sermons. One church that I watch online when I can is Elevation Church, which I shared from on Friday. I heard of them through Lysa TerKeurst who attends there.
Every time I have gone to listen, it's been UH-mazing. Totally what I didn't realize that I needed to hear. Love how the Lord does that.
Anyhow, the video I wanted to share is part 2 of the one I posted Friday.
Listen all the way through, even if you're thinking, 'this doesn't apply to me'...because, I'm sure you'll eventually hear something that is JUST FOR YOU...like I did. And if you know me and my life story, I'm sure you'll know exactly the words that I heard when I felt the blow to the gut not once, but twice ;0 FUN. but. AMAZING.
Thank you, Lord, for your Word!

Video for Ya
Oh me, oh my....what a wonderful word that is delivered here through Holly Furtick at Elevation Church.
Don't want to ramble too much so that you can use whatever time you have here today to watch! Praying it really speaks to you the way it did me ;0

Ahhh...
Well, it's been quite a couple of months here. There was some time of poor sleep, a struggle (that's still around) of adapting to our current season -which I can get in to below- and much more ground work being laid down in to this life o'mine.
YOU: wa?!
ME: It's been a tough couple of months! As with most people, not sleeping well at night makes things tough during the day:) Praise God I'm about a week and a half out of it, and as of yesterday, finally felt myself out of the 'haze'.
Yesterday, I felt like I 'woke up' and found myself as a mother of a barely walking toddler and thought, "Where did the last 14 and a half months go?!". So maybe the haze has been a bit longer. Kinda scary, huh?! All of a sudden I'm the in-tune mama I've been trying to read about (so I can find 'how to'!) trying to become. So much for all that teaching time and special developmental time I've now bypassed in little Ms Em's life ;0...not too worried, she seems just fine. ...all kidding and silliness aside tho, just being completely honest.
The struggle with adapting in this season is missing my husband. He's here. "Goes" to work about 6-7 days a week, then comes home and works some more. Our choosing. The Lord provided an opportunity for a huge blessing financially, and in turn, Tyler's committed to working his little tail off after putting in 40 office hours + 12 or so event hours a week. Poor guy, I know. But the Lord also tells me time and time again for me to quit trying to bring in additional income myself. I need to focus on my family and home. I struggle very much with this! I get approached to do things often...even if they're mainly as favors/not paid...but it's becoming more and more clear to me that He does not want my attention to be split. SO...Tyler to work it is. And me to support/encourage him and step up in all things for hubby (to assist in any way I can)...is a struggle. I think I'm mainly struggling with just missing him. By that I mean, just getting that time to talk and spend real quality time with one another. We've both been so exhausted that we're more like zombies once Emma goes to bed, and eventually I just fall asleep. Prayerfully, tho, now that sleeps treating me well and I'm feeling like I'm in the game, I'm hoping to be more on it and be able to reconnect.
I knew this time was coming; this season for Tyler's always tough due to the extended work week/hours for these six months. Quite honestly, I was dreading it. All summer, I felt as tho the Lord was spoiling us (which was awesome;0). I knew that this fall/winter, He was going to bring me to a new place so I can learn to lean on Him in a new way.
And I've arrived. Now for the learning. One thing that is definitely going to assist is the new book we've started in my Bible study, Crazy Love. 1 chapter and a few videos (that he directs you to in the book) in, I'm super excited about this new journey. I love God's timing and how I could never in a million years ever possibly line things up so perfectly. More on that throughout the next couple of months, I'm sure!
For now, I wanted to share this video that I watched this am. Seriously, take the 15 minutes to watch the entire thing. Especially if you usually don't watch when I post something:) I pray you will! ...enjoy...

Video Sermon
I have been focusing much of my time with God in preparation for discipleship. It seemed to work quite well for a week, not so much the second week and this week I'm like, "OK, I need my own focus during my QT."
As we are still working to get Emma's naps to somewhat be scheduled (since she wasn't feeling good last week and was transitioning from 3-2 naps prior, she's kinda all over the place), I haven't had those set 1-2 hour blocks where I can spend tons of time with the Lord throughout the day.
Yesterday, in my effort to find something to help me focus on God's word, I checked out Holly Furtick's blog, and she had a link to a sermon from Celebration Church in Florida, by Pastor Stovall Weems.
I enjoyed his style, humor and it was a great message. Wasn't quite sure what to think of some of his points regarding quality time (trying to create it with dinner, etc), but I do get what his overall message was. It was a bout 'being there', as God asked Moses to be in Exodus 24:12.
I'd share more of my thoughts but Ms Em is awake :) Click here to view the video (you can also select audio if you want to listen while you're doing something else, for you busy peeps ;0), and let me know your thoughts!
Have a great weekend!
