I have many things to be grateful for this week, but for now I am only going to focus on one. I know that my Father in Heaven hears and answers prayers. Ken and I were prompted just last night to rethink buying the home in Lehi. We prayer together, individually, and with our children. The Lord very clearly answered our prayers that buying that home at this time is NOT the right thing for our family. This morning we withdrew our offer and WE WILL NOT BE MOVING TO LEHI. Is my heart crushed? No! I feel like maybe it should be, because up until yesterday we had every intention of moving at the end of the month. But, my heart feels lighter and we feel at peace. Half my house is in boxes, I have no decorations on the walls, and we are completely back to square one, but it feels so right. We don't no why, and I'm not going to question the Lord. He knows better than I do what we need. I am so grateful for the Holy Ghost and for a loving Heavenly Father who answers prayers.
Side note: Ken and I looked at a home in Orem today that both of us just love. My kids would even get to go to their same school. I don't know what will happen, but I'll just leave it in the Lords hands.

Wow! I'm glad you guys feel good about your decision. Everything will work out and you will find the home that's perfect for you.
Maybe now you can scrapbook with us????
Actually, thanks for the reminder. I would love to scrapbook. I'll talk to Ken. Do you know what Ann and Heather are planning?
That was a complete surprise! I have faith that you will find the home that is meant for you and that you will be happy in. I guess I'm a little selfish but I'm glad you're not moving to Lehi. Maybe you could check for homes in Payson?lol
