Pray for Man.

I would say I’ve been out of commission but that’s not true. The unexpected has happen in so many ways. Ways that have me in awe for 4 days now.
Crystal is beginning to like boys. I’m not exactly sure how to deal with this as I really didn’t have much guidance in this area. Lol, I’m not sure if that was a bad or a good thing growing up. Mike and I knew this was coming except I was in denial. I guess I feel like, I’m getting old? Or maybe it’s because I’m so young? Or maybe I thought she was still my baby.

She’s taking better care of herself, which typically happens when boys become a bit interesting. But did she really have to shave her arms?! Yes that’s right. One night I find out she likes boys and the next day she’s been shaving her arms. Kind of reminds me of the time when my mom found out I was shaving my legs.
Here’s the story;

So we’re sitting at my aunt’s house thinking all is cool. My mom and her start a conversation about shaving. Don’t remember the details because it was so long ago, but my mom touches my legs and the hair is gone! She threatens me and says she is going to tell my dad. As any child would react I freaked! I thought to myself, “Oh boy, I’m one dead hairless child!!!!” “Lord help me!” My dad arrives after a hard day’s work. Mom breaks the news and my dad says, “Well honey, you shave your legs too.” YAY!!! I’m alive, thank you Jesus!!

I’m still here and so is Crystal. Now you want to know my reaction to the fact that her hormones are out of control? Here we go. I saw it, read it 3, yes 3 times, double checked with her to see if I read it right, smiled, walked out of the room (from shock), went to Mike and cried. LOL! Yes I cried. How the heck am I suppose to let her grow?! She’s my first born. She’s not supposed to like boys, ever, in her life! HA!! Okay, so the reality is she likes boys.
At the end of that evening I’m glad to say I’m fortunate to have such a great relationship with my children to know that they can share their feelings with me. I am the one that influences them!

Man VS. Jesus
Something else happened Saturday that I’ve only shared with 2 other people. Obviously if they read this they will know who they are. There is this man that I know that had a certain feeling. We discussed what he felt about it. Man, was left thinking. Man goes to church Sunday. Man was touched by the Holy Spirit (The Lord won). Man needs prayer. We know that Satan will try and destroy man because man is seeking a higher power. Man is a good man. Boy am I praying for man.
As you noticed I don’t like to say names unless I’ve asked for the okay. I’ll always do that.

Next, because of Man and Crystal I have learned quite frequently that I need to hand it all to the Lord. I need to trust God. After all he did mention that a few times.
Oh this is good. I went to the mirror this am and took a look at my face. I must have had my face done during surgery and I don’t think the Dr did a good enough job. He seemed to have added a skin tack under my eye. He also seemed to have added some lose skin under my neck. See my neck use to be HERE, now it’s here. It wasn’t a pretty picture. I also figured out that my mirror isn’t giving out clear images anymore. I think it’s time to call matinence so they can replace that.

Lastly, tomorrow I wake up to see one of God’s gifts being born. I have the great pleasure to take photos of every precious moment. I plan to ask the mommy and daddy to allow me to lay hands on her and pray that the Lord shields her.

Looks like I need a shower and off to bed I go. Take luck and catch ya on the flip side!

  1. LOL! First thing...good thing Crys likes BOYS. Cuz um, yeah, it could be...well, yeah!

    And hey- if the replacement mirror works better let me knwo what kind it is. I have this problem with my boobs that used to be HERE are now heeeeerrrrreeeee. Or maybe I need contacts? Or a really good secret from Vicki?

    Lastly- I pray for Man too... in the name of Jesus- Satan will NOT destroy! In fact Man will be on my ladies group prayer list tomorrow night.

    It's late and I feel a big David and Goliath Prayer coming on...
