Isaiah 43:16, 18-19
“This is what the LORD says— he who made a way through the sea, a path through the mighty waters, "Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland.”

Joshua
Joshua is a servant like none other.
I have never met anyone to knows how to love quite like him. Recently he has served me in so many ways I don't think I could even list them all, so I will just share some of the things that have meant the most to me.
All of the cleaning- Seriously he has been cleaning non stop, always helping around the house and trying to do things for me so I wont have to do them.
Helping with the boys- He changes all of the diapers, he told me that his goal is for me to never have to change any diapers! I have probably changed Caleb only a handful of times. He watches them so I can have alone time, and is just always helping and looking for ways to serve me and our family
He is romantic! He has been buying me flowers, not just any kind either, but all the kinds that are my favorites. Often he buys lots of different flowers that he thinks I would like and then makes me a bouquet and arranges them himself! He goes to my favorite paper store and selects stationary and writes me a beautiful hand written love letter and brings it in with the mail!
He blesses my spirit, He encourages me, reads to me, prays for me, never too busy to listen, talk pray, or worship. He goes on fasts. He is hard core. He is an inspiration.
Joshua I love you, and after two kids ( and one more on the way!) you still melt my heart!
I love you darling!!!

We are going to have another baby!!
"Sons are a heritage from the LORD, children a reward from him.
Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one's youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. They will not be put to shame when they contend with their enemies in the gate."
{Psalms 127 3-5}
Thank you LORD!!

Drink your green drink!
Dark green leafy veggies are sooo good for you!! Especially when you eat them raw packed full of living enzymes and nutrients! Raw greens are also packed with calcium which is really important for vegan and those eating raw. Recently our family has been starting the day with a blender full (or two or three!) of green smoothie! It is actually very filling and sooo good for you. Even Elisha has been eating them!
I still can't believe that's what the our family has for breakfast every morning. It's a long way from bacon, eggs, scones, waffles, etc.
We have been using different kinds of organic kale, spinach, collard greens, chard greens and wheat grass for the "green" in our green smoothie's. I also add things like bananas, berries (especially blueberries- they are really high in anti oxidants!) orange (I hear that adding the oranges help you to absorb the iron) and I like to add cranberry juice. (It's REALLY important that you check the label to make sure that the cranberry juice you use doesn't have any corn syrup or sugar, it's best if it is 100 percent juice and organic only sweetened with other juices. It's also great if its not from concentrate. But you don't even have to use cranberry juice :) You can also add some ground flax seed. (To learn about how amazing flax seed is click here and check it out!)
Throw in some berries or orange, toss in some greens and add some healthy juice or water and blend. It takes some getting used to, but when you use bananas and berries and things it's not bitter and tastes better than you would think. Drinking it through a straw helps me too. We have been doing this every morning as a family and it's made such a difference!!
