Fathers

Since it is Father's Day I want to write about all the great father's in my life.

1) My Dad.  He is one of the good guys.  He is so generous and such a great guy.  He has a way of offering advice with out coming out and saying this is what you should do.  Also he is a great grandpa.  He always has time for the grandkids. I have so many fond memories of my father.

2) Lee's Dad.  Also  totally amazing grandpa.  I so knows that he loves my kids.  He is also is so great to hang out with.  We love going up to Kamiah and visiting with him.  He has seen many trials in his life and has continued to stay strong.

3)  Lee is a great dad.  He is staying home with the kids and it is going great thus far.  The kids love their dad to pieces and I know that he loves them.  Lee loves teaching the kids things. 

4)  My Heavenly Father.  Although I know that so many people think of God as something different then a Father in Heaven.  But that is totally how I see him.  As a loving Father who wants what is best for his children which includes me.  I can feel it when I pray every day that he is there for me in my trials and my successes. 

I love the father's in my life.  I have no idea where I would be with out all of them in my life.

This week was a Struggle

This has been a tough week. I worked some extra hours which were only five hour shifts but were still were time away from the kids.

School starts Tuesday and comments about how people hope my kids dont kill their teachers with COVID is neither helpful or accurate. Plus we had a budget meeting after months of no meetings. In which we found out that we had once again over spent in August. Which could have been stopped if we would have known earlier in the month. I sent $1500 to student loans. Andrew turned eight yesterday and I am so thankful for him. He is become such a deep thinker and asks these amazing questions that I don't always have the answers to. The meds have helped slow him down but he is still crazy Andrew. We upped the medications and it was like he was on speed. He couldn't sleep and was kind of zombie like. Then there has been a few moments wher

The one you feed...

A few weeks ago Lee text me this story.  One evening, an elderly cherokee brave told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. he said "my son, the battle is between two 'wolves' inside us all. one is evil. it is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. the other is good. it is joy, peace love, hope serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith." the grandson though about it for a minute and then asked his grandfather: "which wolf wins?..." the old cherokee simply replied, "the one that you feed"  One I have heard 100 times but one that I needed at that moment although I didn't know it.  There have been several situations that have happened these past few weeks and I keep thinking of that story and I have to remind myself which wolf I am feeding.
