So, it has been way to long since I have blogged here. I decided today that I needed to get this blog up and running again, so here I go...
So much has happened since I last wrote. I became pregnant with our first child, Faith, who was born into Heaven on April 15, 2014. I am now pregnant with her sister, Joy, who has a due date of 4 days after Faith's.
Since I have a high risk pregnancy, I am going to the Doctors frequently. I have a weekly shot, and see a MFM specialist every 2 weeks and my regular Doctor every 4...until later, at which time, my appointments will be more frequent.
So, I am currently looking for work that I can do at home from my computer part-time. Along with that, I am now able to do light housework, work on building my jewelry business, and focus on growing Joy.
You can see my jewelry business site, which is in honor of our first daughter, Faith, here: faithmelodymemories.etsy.com. I began making jewelry after we lost Faith almost a year ago, and turned into being in her honor and her namesake. 10% of my profits go to a charity for summer camp scholarships.
...now that I have brought you up to speed in my life...back to my day.
I believe that there are MANY ways that we can be helpmates to our husbands. I want to be a productive & helpful wife who produces fruit in my life as well as in the life of my husband. I know the importance of sowing seed and reaping a harvest of fruit from that seed. We are instructed to bear fruit in our lives with everything our hands touch, and with His help, I see fruit in my life more and more daily. I need to constantly sow seed, as well as constantly reap the fruit from the seeds I have sown. Otherwise I am not doing what I am supposed to be doing. God tells us He will bless the work of our hands, thus, we actually have to DO WORK.
Today, I got up, had my coffee (decaf), had a smoothie (like every morning), and started my day. First, I started a load of laundry and folded and put away towels from my load of laundry from yesterday. Then, I had to go to the grocery store to pick up a few items that we needed in the house.

After getting back from the store and putting away the items I purchased at the store, it was time to make and eat lunch. I used leftover grilled chicken to make a chicken salad. It turned out very good and I had some melon along with a sandwich. Lunch was VERY delicious!
Then it was time to do dishes, more laundry tasks, and clean up in our bathrooms.
After my husband got home, we got to enjoy some great time, watched a movie, and just spent some time together. That is always so much fun no matter what we do together.
After my husband went to bed, it was downstairs for me to relax some, watch some TV, Golden Girls, of course, and to work on the onesie that I am currently making for Joy. It is going to be very special. I can't wait until it's done to show you all my work! It is coming along nicely.
Well, I will wrap up this post and relax a bit more before I head off to bed so I can have energy to get in a good productive day tomorrow.
