I believe that God puts people in your life for a purpose! Lately, I have been busy. In a different kind of way! Sure there is the hustle and bustle of getting ready for school, crockpot dinners, playing with my kids, talks with my husband and of course Photography. Even though Photography is sure enough work. (Lots of folks dont know really what is involved) It is definitely different from getting up at 5am and jerking kids out of bed, rushing out the door, flying into the daycare on two wheels to make it to work at 6:30am and work all day long. How I ever did that and did all that I ever did is a mystery to me. Anyways, so as school was about to start I had immense anxiety about how I would spend my days alone. Not that I wasnt thankful to not be working and all that jazz, but I would be working alone and in the quiet of my home. This past year God has been working on me in several ways, and some very uncomfortable, and not so much fun. Sometimes, I would have anxiety about things that were going on around me or in the world. Nothing even to do with my family or me for that matter. (Marriage, kids, health all great!) But sometimes the lessons of God that bring you the closest to him are not all rainbows and lollipops as I would hope for. Nobody ever really learns from the easy stuff anyways. I prayed about my empty days while my kids were at school, especially during my slow photography times. All my friends were at work....husband at work....I needed adult conversations because that is just how I roll..You know? I like to chat and all! (and I always wonder where Reagan gets it from lol) Well, my prayers were answered in the form of a friend! A new one (well, knew her before just closer now) that is a mom too and we have alot in common to boot! :) I have kept busy, crafting, projects, talks, chats, texts, workouts and now bible study! So I never have to be isolated...and even meeting new friends through her. Its so funny, and gives me chills to think about how God works on our hearts even when we dont understand or realize it. We are not meant to understand everything! It all works out in Gods time. I still do talk to my other friends and family etc, but I am thankful today and always for new ones.
