Spring and New Beginnings

Spring is finally trying to arrive in Eastern Montana.  I am so grateful.  We have a couple more days of predicted snow still in the forecast, but it is the type of snow that falls and melts away in a couple of days.  It has been a long, cold winter with bitter windchills and very dark days.  I am looking forward to growing a vegetable garden and spring sunshine.

I stayed home from work today with a nasty chest cold.  I am in training for a new (to me) division at work so I feel very bad about missing some of this valuable training time but I also don't want to spread my germs around too much either.  But I think I am on the mend.  I just need a few days of rest for this to be all behind me.

There is a lot of worry in the world right now and it is so easy to get wrapped up in what could be or what might be.  Oddly, I find myself in a very peaceful place.  I feel God is providing in our life.  I am going back to full time at work which will really help out our family finances, and we are getting our debt paid off slowly but surely.  We are trying to both fix the past and prepare for the future.

Nora has grown up so much!  We are preparing for her 4th birthday!  I can hardly believe it!  She is learning so much at her Preschool and I am so proud of her.

More Later!  I have laundry to do!
