Have you ever had one of these days????

Yeah so....this is quite possibly one of the best days we have had during our almost 7 year marriage...things are just falling into place.

Just to name a few...the van went in today to have some work done that we had put into the contract when we bought it. So for about 5 weeks now the rear brakes have been REALLY squeaky and I have been thinking that we probably needed a rear brake job(costing approx. $180). As it turns out the ABS light that was on was causing the rear squeaks and THEY ARE BEING FIXED AS I TYPE!!!! SWEET!!!

Also...I got a letter today from All Kids saying that starting September 1st we will be receiving a insurance rebate of almost our entire payment(WAY TOO MUCH FOR OUR FAMILY). That is HUGE for us!

Also...Sean got his HUGE expense check today...

I could go on and on...how weird....I also sold over $150 of stuff that I wasn't using anymore and Kierstin is happier and taking later naps.

God is Good! And I am remembering to praise him during this time of what feels like "showers of blessings".

On a lighter note...Sean and I are celebrating our wedding anniversary this Sunday! Which will mean that for one evening I will be out of my house in my not so squeaky van enjoying time with my husband and only one of my children ;)

Ok....I will stop gloating now! I guess that when I feel that we have had bad "luck" for months I want to shout it from the rooftops when I feel that God is recognizing us!!!!

Wow! I just found your blog. I've been married 7 years too, but only 4 kids in those years, not 5. You must be busy! But a good busy. I also breastfeed and cloth diaper but no co-sleeping for me :-) Sounds like a good day you just had.

Yeah it was a great day!!! And now I am completely sweaty from my run...GROSS!!! I am busy but I don't ever dis-credit those moms who have less kids than I do. I know that you are all just as busy as I am! I think it is all about choosing your "priorities" wisely!

Well, praise God! I am so glad you are having one of those days. Enjoy today & all the things that He is doing for you ;>) I need to sell some "stuff" too. I bet it feels good to have all that stuff gone & have money in your pocket too. What are your anniversary plans? I hope you guys have lots of fun!
