Spent Saturday with our friends Paul and Donna. They live on the lake here and have a wakeboarding boat. Yes, we did wakeboard in October and YES the water was cold! I wasn't sure if I would give it a try this time, but I did and got up almost every time. Now I just need to figure out what I do when I get there! Ha! Maybe next summer.
Work is going well . . . I guess. I am "Teacher of the Month" this month and have my picture along with a very nice message posted in the entrance of our school. I am trying to Co-teach with a 5th grade teacher. We started this week and are still trying to "tweak" everything. These kids need a lot of help!!!! I just pray everyday that I can help these kids!!!!
Today I was nominated to attend the United Way Fundraiser meeting. I guess I'm helping with the campaign this year. Oh goody! :) No, I am glad to help - just a little worried.
Back to the weekend . . . Donna shared with me a verse that helped her while she was waiting on her husband and a baby later on. It is Psalm 37:7:
"Be still and wait on the Lord. Do not fret when others succeed in their ways."
I just keep saying this verse over and over again so that I don't get too overcome by envy of others that do have families. It seems like most people have children and it's hard for me to wonder why our time hasn't yet come. I know God has a plan though and is working it for my good and His Glory!
Donna also suggested buying a baby outfit and hanging it somewhere as a statement of faith that we will one day have a child. Someone gave us a little outfit with a guitar on it when we were pregnant last spring so I hung up that one.
Last night we went to a fundraiser banquet for the Daybreak Crisis Pregnancy Center last night. It was great to support such a wonderful cause but also very painful to listen to stories of women who "accidently" became pregnant and didn't want their babies! God's ways are so mysterious!
We are now 4 days late again with no positive pregnancy test. This happened last month and we ended up being 6 days late. Why would my cycle all of the sudden go from a steady 28 day cycle to an irregular 30-something day cycle? I have not idea. I am not going to try to understand it. We get to start using the fertility monitor next cycle so I am excited about that. It will be good to find out more about what is going on.
I started some new meds this week and haven't noticed that much of a difference. I hope to see some results soon.
This has been a VERY random post. I'm just trying to journal what is going on overall.
OH! I did read more in the book of Job. After God allowed Satan to destroy most of Job's family and possessions, Satan asked to be able to strike Job's body and God allowed him to do so. Job still does not curse or blame God but does say he desires to die. I have definitely been there! I had those thoughts today.
I just pray that Judd and I are doing what we are supposed to in our lives right now. Judd is struggling too with the church. We are praying for miracles all over the place!
Is anyway else relating to how I'm feeling?
In His Hands,
Katy :)
