Excited

I am excited about Glenda's new blog.  I am expecting to read some really good posts.  I know I don't post regularly but I read the blogs I am following almost every night even if I don't have the time or energy to sign in and comment I read them.
Glenda's URL is http://glenda-justathought.blogspot.com/.  If you want to check blog out.

Had a good day with the boys.  Norma came over and brought me roses from her yard.  They are so pretty!  Red ones.  Got to talk to Glenda on the phone.  Good Day!!!!

Awake

Sitting here at the computer awake so late.  I did go to sleep earlier and then woke up about 12am.
I was looking at the pics Norma took on Easter Sunday and I wanted to post a few.




Great to see my kids at church.  Praying for miracles!!

Jaxon waved goodbye yesterday when I put the kids in the car.  Then all they got to do was sit in my car for about fifteen minutes and then go back inside since my car would not start.  That is the first time I have seen him wave.  We were all excited about that! 

God is good.
I pray all has a good night!

Please Pray!

Once again I am asking for prayer.  Tonight when I went to pick up the boys my car would not start.  I had just found out that my car cannot be inspected without the headlight covering (Which mysteriously dissappeared a few days ago) as it has the signal lights in it (Or something like that).  Gonna cost!!  Now this.  Pray that it is nothing major wrong and can be fixed quickly and inexpensively.  I will have the cost of the picking it up as it is and then the inspection and the headlight cover and replacement cost.
Woe is me!!!!!!!!  Cried enough.
God is good.  Norma and Wesley were so nice to take my car to try and get it inspected and then they came to Sharon's picked me up, brought me home and will arrange for the car tomorrow and take me to work.  Is that kindness or what.  Thanks so much Norma.  Don't know what I would do without you.  God bless you abundantly!!!!!!!!!

"I am dependant on His love!  His grace showering down from up above."  He has been so good to me and I know He will make a way where there seems to be no way. (Cliche, maybe, but true) Amen.

God bless you all!

Feeling Blue

I am "Down In The Dumps" .  Say a prayer for me.  Not good with change.  Makes for frettin'.  I am so nervous about the cameras going in at work.  I won't detail the nerves 'cause to be honest I really don't know why I am so blue.  I don't know if there is a need or if the devil is just taking advantage to wool me around?

That being said.   God is good and I will try not to dwell there.

I read this on my calendar and want to share it.

"No matter how I feel today, Lord, give me victory and joy in you.  Keep my eyes on you and the hope there is in trusting You.  Don't let me get sidetracked by wishing I were younger or regretting anything about my current circumstances.  This is the day you've given me.  Help me live fully this very minute.  Amen. "

I pray you all have a good night and a wonderful day tomorrow with good health, joy and peace.  I love you.

Staff Meeting! Oh No!

Another one tonight.  It was not too bad though.  Ms. Sandra tried to be nice about everything and she has made out more explicit schedule so I pray all works out well.  She did however let us know they were still going to do the cameras.  I had hoped they had forgotten about them.  Pray for me.  It is kinda of weird to think about being watched all the time.  Not that I will do anything bad it is just the idea.
Ms. Sandra did say that we are going to pass on graduation this year and I am really glad in one way but in another way it makes me feel kinda sick to not do it.  It is a real draw for our Learning Center.  But I have an almost complete turnover in students this year.  It happen in day care unlike public school the parents can bring kids as late as they want or take them out, change schools. etc.  It makes it where the children do not get the full benefit of the school year classes.  Oh well I can't change that but it was very disappointing to find on my evaluations forms that the children I have now are very much behind what is normal for my class.  I wonder why the other class teachers and or mothers have not taught them more.  The school system expect them to know a lot more a lot younger than they use to.

Sorry guys!  I really love to teach children and it is kind of a soap box for me when parents don't try to teach their children.  I told my kids at school yesterday that everything has to be learned.  We are born knowing how to cry and to suck.  Cry to make our needs met and suck to nourish our bodies.  All else we have to learn.

I'll step off the box now.  
Idol fans.  Who is your favorite this year.  I m having a hard time settling on anyone.  I can't help but root for James Durbin with his aspbergers and turrets he really has to push through.  You know asbergers is high functioning Autism so I know a little about that because of Jaxon.  But to be honest his style is way too wild for me.  I guess my least favorites are Jacob, Stefano and Haley. 
For those of you who do not watch Dancing with the Stars.  Pia from Idol is going to sing while Mark Ballast dances on the Tuesday Night results show this coming week.  So if you like her and was upset about her being voted off you might want to watch.

I will be off work on Friday and I am going to get the boys on Sunday instead of Saturday so with 2 days together I pray I get some things done in my house. 
Glenda.  I can't remember if I even told you how much I like my clock.  I have not felt like being on the computer much so I have mostly just read the other posts but  I hung it up a nail that was already on the wall.  it is really pretty and bright and the numbers are really easy read (A BIG plus for me)  Anyway I hope maybe to decorate a little better with something beside it other than a basket of orange flowers.
How about that good looking little boy by the clock!

  Love the vacuum, too and it allowed me to take the one Norma gave me to work!!  Which is also wonderful because I have started back vacuuming my carpet there better, too.

I think I  am babbling and I know I am tired 5:30 am was a long time ago so I will bid you a good night!
God bless in abundance!  I love you all.

All Stuffed

Finished.  Finally.  Another years eggs stuffed.  Every year I spend hours stuffing Easter eggs for Lollypop and church.  This year I did not have as many to do.  Usually I buy tons of plastic eggs at the end of the year.  I did not find the BIG sale last year so all I had was a few chick shaped eggs from last year.  I bought 3 bags of 42 to go with the chicks.
Anyway I stuffed them today.  It takes longer than you would think.  I always tape them shut so they won't pop open out on the ground.


Norma took some pics of my roses or should I say Dad's roses.  They have been open several days so they are starting to wilt.

God bless you all.

Just Sitting Here

I am just sitting as usual.  I am watching Iron Chef America.  I have been working on Minimum Standards for work.  They have really upped the work to go through this training.  It is dull and boring and just long, long lots of work.  I would say that the work involved this time is tripled from the last time I did the training.  It used to be just a packet of papers where you filled in the blanks now you have to write big long lists of stuff.  It is 138 pages of boring.  And by the way I don't like or use that word normally either but man!!!!!!!!

Weekend went well.  I had fun with the kids.  It has been so nice to be able to go out back and let the kids run and play.  I was pleasantly surprised at how much understandable words Jaxon used this time.  Jordan is a mess and of course he is learning to talk and do all kinds of things including being bossy to his big brother.

I took Jordan to Sunday school this morning and i felt he did pretty good.  He loves to do penny march.

Keep me in your prayers.  I do not feel good.  I did not feel good all last week.  I do not know what the problem is.  Maybe just this time of year.  Hope to sleep better tonight than I did last night.

I pray everyone is doing good.  God bless you all1

I will rejoice and be glad in it!

Notice in Psalm 118 that the rejoicing comes before the gladness.  The rejoicing is in God making the day, not in our finding something to be glad about.  That might seem insignificant, but it says everything.  Sometimes we think we can't be happy...until something happens that evokes that feeling.  But the gift of the day itself is enough to make us happy.  The trick is in seeing it.  And the ability to see it lies in hope.

I like this.  It is on my calendar this month.  This is the day that the Lord has made.....

God is good.

I am tired and off to bed.  I had a good visit with my boys but now I'm soooooo tired.

God bless  you all with a peaceful night and I pray you awake with the Joy of the morning and continue happy and at peace throughout the day.  I love you all!!

Cry Unto The Lord!

CRY UNTO THE LORD!
O Lord, my God.
My soul cries out within me.

I love You, Lord.
I desire Your help, Your care, Your Love.
I am so restless within myself.

Please, Lord, plant my feet, my heart, my mind firmly within You and within Your will.
Keep me! I need You.

I look around at so much pain and I ask, "Why? Why? Why?"?
But I understand and comprehend that Your ways are far above my thoughts.
You are not limited to time or space.

I call out to You! I call out within myself,
"Oh, Lord, Is there some mark I am missng completely?
Am I just to be content where I am or am I to shake myself and break out?

Do I have a great error I need shown the right of?
Is it just a lack of self-control?
Is it a question of timing?'

Oh, Lord my God, I desire to be right with You!
In a right place, a right attitude of mind.
I need You, Lord! We need You, Lord!

Show us Your way.
Make known Your majesty, Your love.
My soul cries out to You!

Please, Lord, bring some miracle healings and deliverances into being. Heal where healing is needed. Deliver where deliverance is needed. Help! I cry help, Lord, we need You. We need Your might, Your mercy, Your love, Your joy, Your grace. Turn us not away. Bring us where You desire us to be. Bring us where You desire us to walk. In Jesus Name I pray. I thank You, Lord. Amen.

Love and Prayers, Zita

Found this in my gleanings.  I feel this is a prayer  I would like to pray now!!!

Meeting

Just wanted you to know the meeting was no big deal today.  2 of the staff did not show up so Sandra just talked a little while and postponed to another time.  Pray our staff grow us and act like they should and then maybe we won't go through this again. 
Thanks for praying!!!!!!!

Thank God It Is Friday

I made it.  I am beat.  I have a staff meeting tomorrow at 1:00 pm and i am really dreading it.  I hate staff meetings and I know this one is going to be a gripe session.  Keep me in your prayers.  This has been an extremely long week to me.  I guess my little sick session took its toll.

Because of my meeting I will not have my boys until Sunday.  That means I will have both of them at church so say another prayer for me! LOL.

Jaxon Spring School Pic
He is getting so big.

Well, I thing I will go fix me something to eat.
God is good.
