getting better
Would you believe my pain is more manageable. I am finally getting my pain under control. There are some days that are still bad, but most the time I am doing better. Before I was unable to do to much, but now I am able to accomplish my task. I am volunteering at Faith's school on Fridays and I have joined the Women's Prayer Group. Yes, I am finially able to go out more and do more. After all these years, finally things are looking better. I hope I didn't jinx it.
Thank you for all your prayers, God has answered them. Without those I don't think it would have been as successful as it is now. I am sorry if I made you worry, I hope those days are over.
I hope all of you have a very, very Merry Christmas!

[Link] | As you we had we had bought two birds. Our thoughts the birds were boys. I called my cockatiel "Samuel". Thinking this whole time I had a boy. But one day we went for a walk. As we arrived home just to find a EGG!!! All three of us stook in shock, wondering if was real or not. It look like a small egg of a jelly been. I look it at it careful and sure enough he is a she! We were all blown away.
Last weekened we went to get her wings clip and toe nails clip as well. The women were compliment me for taking such good care of her. :) As that time in the shop she laid two more eggs. Amazing! YOu know there is nothing in it because she doesn't have male with her.
So now we call her "Baby Girl".

Pressure
Hello! Recently I've been experiencing some pressure from some women within the church to get off my medication. Especially with my patch. Without asking them, they decieded to look up my medication and see the side affects. Because there so many side affects with the patch I am asked to stop taking it.
Today I went to see the doctor, I explain to him my concerns in regard to the patch and he told me I was safe. If he felt I was in any danger he would take me off. I hope he has my health with good intentions. And I have to trust he does. Its just scary when people start putting their noses in my life. Especially when I nevr asked them to. I also talked to a pastor and he assured me that God had made these medication to help those who are in a lot of pain.
This is the first time my pain is manageable. I am able to take care of the children and my home. Where in the past I was unable to move. My headaches never stopped and my back was so bad I could hardly move. If I am careful what is wrong with my medications?

Hello!
Hello!
Its been a long time since I wrote. Just wanted to tell you we are all doing well. Each one with their trial but by the grace of God together we stand as a family. Praise God!!!
Tuesday is the first day of school. We are almost ready, there a still a few things we need to get. I am sure going to miss them. Although the summer was tough one, I loved having them any way. I am going to have to adjust myself to being alone again during the day. I don't like being a lone.
I do hope all of you are doing well. Please respond in your time.

summer
Hello!
I am sorry for taking so long to write. I've been caught up cleaning our home and make our home clutter free. Wow! That is sure takes up a long time.
This week we are starting home schooling. I wanted to give the girls free time from school. Yesterday Matthew and I went to Barn and Nobles and picked up so good work books. It will be interesting How I am going work with a first grade and then transform into 5th grade "teacher".
Everyone is doing well. Each day has it own challenges, but in the end their is much love to show.
We are often having play dates with different people. It becomes exciting for the girls, and now I can actually talk to an adult.
I hope all is well for all of you!

[Link] | Yes Mom,there is a swimming pool, but the park is far away. If we can, we will get a bus pass for each of us. It would give us more freedom. We swim almost every day. It helps the kids to get out there engrey. It also gives us time to enter act with one another. In three weeks we will start homeschooling. I could use prayer on this, especially for Isabella she in great need to catch.

sorting
I find it kind of fun. I can finally find the things I been looking for. But the trash is a damper to my fun.
Once again I will be home schooling the children during the summer. I need to find more of my arts and crafts so I can keep them busy. Especially in the morning so I can do my personal devotion with God. We've talked about it, but you know kids, one moment is "yes I understand." The next moment is "Mom Faith is....or its Mom Isabella....I bought some paper and pens, crayons, paint, ect... in hopes that will satisfy them for now.
Thank you for corresponding with me.

[Link] | Hello! Thank you for responding to my letters. It encourages me to keep writing. I too have to fight some of those dust bunnies. We have not been able to go through all those boxes that we have not open since we moved here. However, I am determined to start looking through things and start throwing away the items we don't need. To my surprise I have found things I have forgotten that we can use. For example, I looked through bags and bags of clothes and found clothes for Faith. Poor little one had very little clothes, but now she has more to fill out her drawer. I have found dresses I can use for summer time. Isabella was blessed too.
It will take time to go through each box, but I am determined to finish what I started. The worse part is, what do I keep and what do I throw away. It makes me feel good to do this project.
Take care of yourselves.

Something to say
Hello my Beloved Family!
May God's grace and peace be in your hearts. I wish I had something to say but not much has happen. Today we went to buy food and looked around Walmart a little. There are a few things I would like to get, however, this isn't the time to buy it. Just wanted to know the price.
Today, my family and I just relaxed in front of the t.v. for awhile, talked and play games.
How was your Saturday?

Isabella & Faith
Today is the day Isabella has graduated. My first child is going into Jr. High in Steptember. I just can't belive how quickly she has grown. One day my Mom says to me, "Mary Ann you are pregent!" I was in disbelief! I thought I couldn't get pregent. I was on the top of the world as you know Mom and Linda. She was a baby just the other day and before me stand this sweet beautiful tall child. With bright eyes and wonderment of what the future has held for her. I praise God that I am home to be here for her when she comes home. As the years have gone I've grown in love with her every day trying to develop a strong bond between us. Oh! How I love that child!!
Today Isabella is not the only one to be recongnized, Faith is going into First grade. Here it goes again another adventure before me with another sweet child of love. My prayer is that together we will walk together through these grades. Climbing every mountain and following each stream with one another. However, there is another, her sister who has an impact on her life helping me, walking with us and loving us. Oh! How bless am I!
Thank you Lord for your Love!

Surprise!
Hello to all!
I am doing a lot better. I am on a patch that is called "fentanyl". It looks like the ciggarettes patches. However, this is filled with mediciation. It has helped my back and my migraine. I still get brreak trhrough pain so I still need pills.
I am unsure if you new that we have 10 gallon fish tank. At this time we have 4 gold fish. They came in such a viarious colors. Well today we add two more members to our home. We have Cocktoo and parakeet, they came as a couple. You would think it would have cost us over $100.00. But it did not, it cost $50.00, I've been waiting to have birds for 12 years and I just couldn't pass the price. Their names are (Coktoo) Samual the (Parakeet) is called Adam. They fit the birds perfect. I can't wait to show them to all of you.
I am sorry for not keeping up on my journal, but would you please reply
Love,
Mary Ann

Wednesday
What a wonderful day I had on Wednesday. I went to volunteer at Faith's class. What a joy it is to be with such young children who are so eager to learn. The best part is encouraging the children to do their best.
I got home and start washing clothes and putting them away. Well that part isn't really my favorite , but knowing the kids have clean clothes for tomorrow makes me happy.
Later that night I had been invited to go to a Tea Party at Horizen Church. We had tea sandwiches and pastries. All homemade, eating all this while listening to beautiful music and testimonies.
What a really a beatuiful day. I hope all of you had a good day just like me.
