| Up until a year or so ago I despised pretty much all country music but this song has such a great message I can't get enough of it.
Little boy, 6 years old
A little too used to bein' alone
Another new mom and dad,another school
Another house that'll never be home
When people ask him how he likes this place
He looks up and says with a smile upon his face
"This is my temporary home
It's not where I belong
Windows and rooms that I'm passin' through
This is just a stop, on the way to where I'm going
I'm not afraid because I know this is my
Temporary Home."
Young mom on her own
She needs a little help got nowhere to go
She's lookin' for a job, lookin' for a way out
Because a half-way house will never be a home
At night she whispers to her baby girl
Someday we'll find a place here in this world
This is our temporary home
It's not where we belong
Windows and rooms that we're passin' through
This is just a stop, on the way to where we're going
I'm not afraid because I know this is our
Temporary Home.
Old man, hospital bed
The room is filled with people he loves
And he whispers don't cry for me
I'll see you all someday
He looks up and says "I can see God's face"
"This is my temporary Home
It's not where I belong
Windows and rooms that I'm passin' through
This was just a stop,on the way To where I'm going
I'm not afraid because I know this was
My temporary home."
This is our temporary home

| life update
So here's my life update...since I haven't done one in a while and some of you are probably just burning with curiosity lol...
We're not going to Alumni weekend. Very sad. We hoped to go but decided to be realistic about finances so unless someone else paid our way to get there... yea not happening.
We're moving after Matthew graduates in December...well technically he graduates in November..even though classes don't finish until December don't ask me why...so he'd still "graduate" even if he failed his classes and found out he had to stay at school longer..which we're praying doesn't happen, and I'm confident he will graduate and do great :)
its freezing..yes its freezing...currently we're getting sleet outside..fun..yeah SO looking forward to the possibility of moving to warmer climates! This kind of weather just KILLS my knee.
We don't know where we're moving to yet, we keep going back and forth between two places mostly, One seems to have waaaaaaay more computer tech jobs available than the other..especially more stuff Matthew is interested in doing but until he starts applying for jobs we won't be able to make any set decision. Either way the states we're looking at aren't being hurt by the economy it seems like and since Michigan is the WORST state off out of everyone even if we moved to a state that was getting hurt by the economy it would likely be better than staying here! Since its pushing November soon though I'm hoping we can start making more set plans as far as what is happening come Jan..All we know right now is we can't stay where we're at. so even if we can't move right away we still have to move..lol
ok update done.

| GREAT new song by Mark Schultz
Father, let the world just fade away
Let me feel your presence in this place
Lord, I’ve never been so weary
How I need to know you’re near me
Father, let the world just fade away
Till I’m on my knees
Till my heart can sing
He is
He was
He always will be
Even when it feels like there is no one holding me
Be still, my soul
He is
Father, let your Holy Spirit sing
Let it calm the storm inside of me
As I stand amazed
Lift my hands and say
He is
He was
He always will be
He lives
He loves
He’s always with me
Even when it feels like there is no one holding me
Be still, my soul
Through every fear
And every doubt
And every tear I shed
Down every road
I’m not alone
No matter where I am
He is
He was
And He always will be
He lives
He loves
He’s always with me
Even when it feels like there is no one holding me
Be still, my soul
Be still, and know
Be still, my soul
He is
