The end of our stay

Well folks the time has come. It has flown by for me. I was scared it wouldnt but it did. Im laying here and can't go back to sleep. I dont know if its because im excited or what. When we first were coming out here I was nervous I would be homesick a good bit but to be honest with you all I havent hardly been at all. I mean don't get me wrong I have missed everyone but I wasn't homesick.  I owe that one to the lord. I normally don't handle change well. Ask anyone that knows me well, I cant hardly rearrange my furniture sometimes cause it stresses me out. Lol I know, so sad. I have done better here this past year but this trip was a HUGE change and I have to say, I did AWESOME.  Go me! I truly give God the credit because I know people were praying for us. And I want to thank any of you who thought of us, called, sent a text, or sent up a prayer for us. Because i know you did, I felt it. My kids have done so well too. I have gotten to spend good quality time with them that i wouldn't trade for anything and I have learned some valuable lessons out here just like I had hoped I would.  One day we were here at the house and Tay came up to me and said lets pray. It kinda caught me off guard but I said ok lets go pray. So we went in our closet and got on our knees.  You just don't even know how thankful I am for that. As I lay here in bed im teary eyed at the thought of it. Yesterday I started thinking of the needless worrying I have done here the past few months and then I started thinking of a couple of people that have truly needed Gods help here lately that I have heard of. I felt so guilty because I realized how good I actually have it. My mama told me whenever you feel like you don't have much you just grab them babies and love on them and then you'll realize how much you really do have. She was so right but i have so much more than that. So when I look at it like that I feel like a millionaire. A good husband who is such a hard worker.  Seriously he has worked 6 days a weeks and at least 10 hours a day sometimes 11 & 12 hours the majority of the time we have been out here. A loving family and a loving church family who has showed thier love to me since I have been gone and to top it all off my holy ghost. Just knowing this is the end of the trip has made me reflect back and think on good things.  A sister from grassy and her kids came out here to be with her husband who jed works with for the past few weeks so I have had company and so has Taylor.  Shes been a big help and im so grateful for her. Together we took out kids sledding at white sands national monument,  the farmers market at downtown , and to a few museums.  Taylor has haf such a blast! Ill try to do a picture post when I get home. The internet is terrible where we've stayed so I haven't messed with blogging cause it takes so long seems like. I can't wait to see yall soon!
Love
Becca
