Update from Terri Powell


Hello ladies :o)

I trust all of you are doing well!

Sandra and I met yesterday to upload her photos and she invited you all to her snapfish account! Hope you will take advantage of that! She and I both discussed how we were both feeling a little down....I am still feeling this way and was wondering if you all were too? I guess we were all so buoyant with all those prayers and great things and fellowship (and, dare i say healthy food?) that for me, coming home was a bit of a let-down! Well...hahaha...here's a thing! My sister and I pull up and Gordon is locking up his bike and informed me that 1: my car was broken, 2: Tyler's bike was stolen, "oh great" i am thinking...as walking into the house....immediately it's, "MOM!! We're hungry! There's no food! There's no sodas! Can you get us something!?!" I am now praying, "Please Jesus, just let me get to the bedroom!!" Next is the "Mom! School pictures are tomorrow! I need a check!" "Mom! " "Mom! !"....ARRRRRRRRRGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gordon had the good sense to give me a big hug, a big kiss and shoo'ed the kids out, left me alone for a good 30 minutes in my room to un-pack, and recoup! After another quick prayer, a deep breath...i walked back in the living room and was ready to tackle the issues ahead, one at a time! Yay God! I did it! :o)

Now, I am just still basking in that happiness and thanking God over and over for the great times i had, and looking forward to next year! I am also trying to put together a little something for all of us...so, i shall keep you posted on that!

*hugsabuncha to all*
