today

Well, I've decided that today is the day to update. I've been meaning to for a while. I just have gotten really good at procrastinating lately. Jenni might be proud, but I don't think my husband is necessarily. Sean and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary the end of January. That was pretty cool. Sean had Plan A, but that didn't work out. So, we went with Plan B. Plan B was waaaaaay better! We went to Branson, and he got us a room at the Chateau on the Lake. What a great husband! He booked us a massage and spa bath at the hotel's spa. What a great husband! We also had a very nice dinner together. What a great husband! It was a really nice weekend. What a guy!

In other news, all three of the kids have started their sports now. Aaron is playing baseball. Devon is playing tennis. Holly is playing soccer. So, I guess there's no backing out now! The kids are loving being involved...and they're being active! Sean and I really like that.

So, I'm not sure what else I should update about. I've been having some weird dreams lately. Like, I've been waking up in the night freaked out, those kind of dreams. I'm learning to pray. I pray about those dreams. I pray against the fear. I rebuke Satan. There is so much power in prayer that I never realized. There is so much power in our words. I never realized that either. Our words bring healing and life or death and depression. I know that is in James. I guess I'm just experiencing this more. I've been talking with some friends about the importance of words. I don't have to accept the things people speak over me. Maybe they're not really speaking something over me, but if someone speaks something to me. I have the choice to accept it or not. I said something the other day to a friend about having allergies and how they bother me. She looked at me funny and said, "Don't claim that for yourself!" She was right! I don't have to accept these allergies. I can be healed. This has all been going over and over in my mind the last week. It sure makes me think before I say something out loud. That can only be a good thing!
