A lovely spring day

Ah, I am sitting here at my desk at work and I have a window right behind me and right now it is open and it is absolutely BEAUTIFUL outside and it smells like fresh dirt and growing grass. I love days like today, it makes a long winter worthwhile to look forward to days like today.
Well, its been a while since I wrote last and I just wanted to update everyone on the going's on's at the Adam TerBeek household.
We are blessed and God is great. He provides beyond all we can ask or imagine...sometimes he just asks us to wait...and we did....and he has blessed us richly. Last I blogged Adam was up in the air as far as employment goes, well, he ended up being offered a good position at Integrity so he took it...of course a few days after he told them he would come on full time Buist called for an interview, but Adam prayed if he was supposed to stay where he was that they wouldn't call back after the interview so he would'nt have to choose...and they didn't . So it was clear that he is where God wants him for now.
Isabelle is so fun..learning all kinds of stuff. She's a silly little girl...she must get that from adam.....or not.
Next week myself, Isabelle and Megan are going up to Interlochen to visit Kim/cam/and Mck while the boys do their annual "Pikes and Pals weekend. Lisa and Tasha you will be missed this year.
Other than that just enjoying being outside in the sunshine with my little "Tootie" playing with the dog. Perhaps kim can show me next weekend how to download some photos so I can post a few of my little "tootie" until then....God Bless

a boat update . . . .

Excited about a new load of Philippine mahogany!

EISEN FAMILIA

HEllo Family of many great people,

I thought I would write a little tid bit about the Eisen house hold and what has been going on in our lives. We have been getting busy on the house again, finished Eli's room now onto Lily's room our room is done well as done as it will be till more money flows in. BUT God is always faithful to provide. Lily is almost 2 growing in leaps and bounds, makes me smile as i see her grow and see more of how God created her to be. Her and I had a rough start but God has been molding and shaping me. It's hard when change needs to happen but our flesh says no and God is in the corner saying yes my child it is time. And sometimes change doesn't happen over night or in a week it takes long amounts of time maybe even years, which is not what to Lord wants but as humans we try to fight and do everything on our own. I have been on a character journey since i got pregos with lily and she has been helping me so see who i had become and don't want to be anymore. funny how there are times when we can't see things and God gets creative and uses his children, our children who he's given to us to look over and teach. Eli loves school and asks every one to be his friend. He has such gifts a servant always wanting to help always asking if your ok, always looking at how to fix things. such a young man. When i watch him sleep sometimes it amazes me how fast they grow. how much they change in so little time. To know that you as a mother carried them in your womb for 9 months birthed them, fed them raised them and then let them go. To know how little we really have with them to invest in their lives. I am finally realizing to FIND joy in being a mother and watching my children grow, it has been a long journey. Jason and I are doing great. God has called Jason and I to the mission fields in Mexico. we're excited to see what he wants us to do there. We don't know when we'll go but he has burdened our hearts for Mexico and the poor. We feel he is telling us to get things in order so when God says go we can go. So our main focus is on getting the house done and getting as much of our mortgage paided off as we can. but in time we will know 2 years 5 10 years we don't know we are just waiting. so that is exciting. Praise God.

Welllll it is lait and i should get some sleep while i can before morning comes and my eyes will not open.
