I'm amazed how well my girls play together when they aren't supposed to be playing! Well, at least I was able to get a nap in. It may not have been as long as I would of liked, but at least I got one. We seem to have moved from one napping and the other playing quietly to niether of them napping or playing quietly. Perfect timing isn't it? Just as I am about to need naps myself with the twins keeping me up through the night, my 4 yr old gives it up!
The Lord will provide. He is all I need! May I rest in Him.

Welcome!
I have had this set up for over a year now and just haven't gotten on here. I was checking out some of my friends blogs and thought now would be a good time to get it up and going. I picked the title "Learning As We Go..." last year when I set it up. At the time I was really struggling with my parenting and other areas of my life. Because of that I was reaching out to God and waiting to see what I was to learn in all of it. I also realized that this was going to be an ongoing process, for the rest of my life. If I am not learning, I am not growing, therefore I am dead. So, I will strive to look for God's lessons (grace) in every day.
I'm sure with everything that is happening the rest of this year, I won't be short on things to talk about! I won't promise that I will be regular in my postings, but I will be updating from time to time. Here is a preview of what is to come.
On August 26th we will be welcoming our 3rd and 4th children into the family. Our twin girls will be delivered by c-section @ 9am that morning! We are all super excited, to include the big sisters, Hannah and Kayla!
Shortly after that (but no date) Michael, my husband, will be leaving for his first deployment since we have been together. Our 10th anniversary is in February of next year. We have been truly blessed to have gone this long without him having to leave for any longer than 3 months. Now it is time to pay our dues. His new unit deploys often but for shorter lengths of time. That means from now on he will be gone more often just not for a year at a time like most units.
We are also homeschooling our oldest girls. This is a challenge in and of itself.
So, with all this going on, I'm sure I will have something to say. I just don't know how often I will be able to get on here and say it! I also won't be short on things to pray about. This is definitely not the time to rely on myself and my own strengths. I will be leaning wholly on God to get me through all of this. I am truly excited to share these experiences with you! Let's see God in action!
