Summer Sounds

Summer sounds--birds chirping, wind blowing, dogs barking, children playing, splashing water, dad at the grill, and cheers! Yes, I said cheers! No break from competitive cheer for the summer--new teams, new season and a new attitude! Both girls are enjoying their new teams and having fun going to practice still. McKensie made 7th grade football cheer for her new middle school--that is very exciting. Can't believe my baby girl will be in 7th grade! Megan becoming a Senior (yikes!). Too much to handle sometimes. Just have to remember to be still and know God has it all under control.

Life is good right now--I love summer and being able to travel to visit my family in Tennessee. This is a highlight of summer for us. Swimming, boating and enjoying the best July 4th party at my Mom and Dad's house. This is our last summer with Megan being a high school student. Pondering and treasuring these moments before college years begin. This school year will be filled with fun, studying hard and final college commitment! Am I ready? Not sure--but, I do know that the Lord ALWAYS prepares my heart for the next phase of motherhood. So, no matter what I do--it will happen. Embracing this life of being a cheer mom to a Senior and 7th grader! For I know it will go by way to fast!

Be Still and know that I am God! Believing and trusting the One who sustains me in this life!

Blessings!
