I Believe!

This past week has been interesting and the coming months will be too if everything doesn't fall apart. It should be quite the Stofer Family Adventure.  Do you hear the pessimist in me?   If and should, usually not in my vocabulary.  I try to stay positive but the past five months has been full of false hope and let downs.  

The one thing I know is that my hope in my God is the only thing that will suffice.  Some reading might say I can't believe she believes all this religious hooey and you can choose to read on or not,  but I will continue!  I do have faith in a God that is everlasting and I do believe He has a plan for me.  So, needless to say I have prayed that He would direct our path and lead us where He wants us.  If I chicken out or say "surely isn't the place God wants me" then my religious beliefs are just that, religion. I would be a hypocrite.  

I am by no means perfect, but I do believe the bible is infallible word of God and I believe what it has to tell us.  Knock and the door will be opened unto you, seek and ye shall find, ask and it will be added unto you.  I know that their are some King James words in there, but that is how I memorized it as a kid.  Forever in my mind and heart. 

Jesus is real and that is that!  Can't explain it all, but I BELIEVE!

Lucky Saint Patrick's Day!

Ada you will love this... Madison loses her tooth yesterday on the way home from school.  I am so excited, I take a picture as soon as she gets out of the van and post it everywhere and email it to family.  I clean it off and put it in a zip lock (easier to find under the pillow, right?) and we tuck it under the pillow and we all, ALL fall asleep.   Madison wakes up at 5:30 AM and says to me, "I can't see if the tooth fairy left me anything". PANIC stricken.  I FORGOT THE TOOTH FAIRY JOB!  Okay this is my only job on earth.  I can't remember to exchange cash for a baby tooth. I send her to the couch and tell her it is too early that she has to try and go back to sleep.   I grab Marks elbow and he says to me, "it is only 5:30".  He was awake and heard her too.  We both lay in silence for 30 minutes hoping she falls asleep.  Funny thing is once we talked to each other thirty minutes later, both of us were in bed formulating a plan.  He wanted to sneak out our

Thank You 2010

I try very hard not to base my life on my location, size of house, materials I possess, new cars or the latest fashions. It is not something that is easy for me or something I don't have to work on everyday. I have chosen my life to be about Christ and not this world. I try to understand this world in the point of view of Christ. This world is not about what, but who. Even if you are not a Christian it is nobel to do for others. I have chosen in my life to follow Christ. Not perfect, just forgiven. I chose to help organizations that are centered on the love of Christ. My main point this holiday season is to remember the who and not the what. I always thought it would be cool to start a Thank You Card movement. Not that I do things for a thank you. A thank you card just shows me that I did something for someone else that was nice, meaningful, worthy. Kinda like a report card. So my challenge to you is to get a thank you card in 2010. It doesn't have to cost you mon

Southern Charm

We made an offer (low), the owners countered (expected) and they countered exactly what I thought they would. So, unless the inspector says the house should be demolished we will be the owners of a 1965, full brick, colonial style, bi-level house the second week of July or earlier. It is on a golf course, 6th fairway. It has a pool, fireplace, an original 60's kitchen (redo), hardwood floors, two car garage and much more. We know the process is long when buying a house in this condition. It's not in deplorable shape, livable in need of some updates. It is 44 years old and has not had major updates. This house is 10 years newer than our last house. It has character and southern charm. Not perfect, but perfect for us. Photos on the web are copyrighted. Not sure If I can post them here. I will try and do a link instead......
