I'm so excited.
I'm not sure why execpt that I can see that God is doing a great work, firstly in myself and all the Reformers. He is the coolest King and Friend.
Yesterday I enjoyed cleaning my garden and seeing all the plants growing. My herbs are growing really well, and I can start eating them by next week. I love digging in the dirt, to try and remember all that was growing last year. Sometimes its good to reminisce about the past. Its good to look back and see "HisStory" To remember what good seeds you have sown, and what will come forth.
He has always been at work in our lives.
I love the scipture in Psalms 143 that says.
"I remember the days of old. I meditate n all Your doings; I muse on the work of Your hands.
I stretch out my hands to You."
I remind myself of this scripture often. Its good to look back, with eyes of gratitude.
Looking back, does not necessarily mean rehearsing past issues or regrets. God's wants us to look back and remember how far He has taken us and what He has done.
This will always give us hope and keep us excited for our bright future in Him.
Remembering and musing on His goodness to us, brings us great joy, and confindence that He will continue to be with us, and continue to transform us.
So, keep going Reformation Team! And look back over the past 16 days and muse on all He has shown you already! They are invaluable, eternal lessons that will set you up for future success!!!

Hello Beautiful! Perhaps I should change that to "Hello Stunning" with that new hip hairstyle?! Do you realize there are only 6 days left on your reformation. At least officially. Needless to say, we are all in a lifelong reformation!
I have been working a lot lately. The extra days are being offered and, feeling the pressure of financial burdens (ie Randi's schooling etc.) I have taken them. The plan was to have today off and spend one-on-one with Adrian. Of course they asked me to work, I waffled knowing how busy it is at work, but at the last minute said "No". It is easy to get priorities mixed up. I know God wants me to slow down and spend some family time with Addie. He will take careof the rest! Our vision/outlook is reflected in our knowledge of past and present mistakes/victories. God sees them all, but best of all He sees all our future victories/mistakes! I will trust Him to make today what He wants it to be for me.
Luv ya so very much - cyndi
when u made the comment on my blog about the movie,i laughed right out loud,Jason said the same thing about the trip they took with the guys. Actually Jason and I were naming the characters to the people we know!!! it's nice to talk to you again. Isn't blogging great?!!!
I will try and not be jealous but, it's really hard! While you are watching your herbs grow.....The snow has just melted here and uncovered ALL of Joey and Mickey's doggie dodos. What a lovely sight. We had Derek out picking the droppings up. He could hardly find a poop free spot to even stand.
So you go ahead and enjoy your herbs while we endure our doggie dodos ...no guilt intended (lol)!!
I Loved your comment to Jen. The part about Matt and his inventions had me laughing out loud!! What a crazy fun son you have.
Love

Yeah...I am TRYING to rejoice with you about your getting to garden, while we are cleaning up after our dog's now that the snow has melted!! We are to get 10 cm. of snow tonight...should be our last snowfall though (I HOPE)!!!
I am hoping to post a pic. on my blog this weekend of all the little plants that I have growing on my livingroom window sill. They are going to be pretty big (and may be blooming!) by the time I am able to plant them outside.
So, while you are experiencing Spring, we in Ontario are DREAMING of Spring! But, it WILL come!
Wow what can I say ... diggin in the dirt again.
You know I really miss razing you and as hard as I tried to find something in your blog that I could bug you about, well it just wasn't there ... either you are maturing or God forbid, God is taking my pesky (brotherly) God given ability to keep you on your toes from me. Perhaps this 21 day reformation is moving you into a maturity that I am no match for :) ... we'll see!
Most out there will probably not know who I am however I know that you will know right away that it is of course ... me :)
Anyhow, you are truely missed. Keep being the blessing that you have always been.
P.S. Do they have stools out there?
I've Been Reading some of the Blogs as I've had a few days off.
I forgot my old password to my old blog...So now have started a new one.
Very Late to join the blog...but have been encouraged by You All and hearing Your journeys has really encouraged me and helped see things in new light!
Look forward to more!

Cheryl,
I see one of those "hypocritical bloggers" has infiltrated again. They are the husbands and kids that razz us, but secretly leave messages as "anonymous".
I stick to my theory, that they are envious of the connections...
Jen
PS: I think I can help with the identity of the above "hyp. blogger"...if you don't already know!
OK Mark,,
I found you out. Yes we have stools for base players, although you really need to break out and start dancing!
