All of my life
In EVERY season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship

update
i really didn't think it had been that long since i've blogged. i remember now why i sometimes hate having a blog....i always forget to update it.
not a lot has been going on with us. as you read before, we got a new puppy. she is one smart pup. we've only had her for about a month and she is already housebroken. she has had a few accidents, but those are mainly our fault for not letting her out. i'm so glad i don't have to worry about dog pee on my carpet anymore. it's a great feeling!
macy is now our world. i can't imagine what will happen when we have kids. hopefully macy will understand that she will not be the center of attention anymore.
we had a bit of a bump in the road last week. for those of you who know, steven and i have been trying to get pregnant for a while. we've been trying since june and we just haven't had any luck. i went to the doctor on wednesday because of irregularity. they think they have figured out why i don't have an regular period anymore and because of that i'm not getting pregnant. it's not a major issure and it is one that can be fixed with no surgery or anything major...PTL. this was a little upsetting to me. i know god has everything under control, but it's still hard to want something so bad and then someone tells you it might not happen as soon as you would like.
maybe this is a way that god is telling us, "hey, not right now." i know he has perfect timing. i know he sees situations that are in the future that we can't see. maybe we are suppose to do other things before we have to focus entirely on someone else. i do want this in gods timing...i really do! i want what he has set aside for me! he knows my needs, desires, and wants. so here i am god...completely and entirely trusting you.

what a week....
this past week has just been a whirlwind for steven and i. if you read my last post, you saw we got mac, our precious puppy. we took him to the groomers last sunday and when we brought him home, we noticed he was having trouble seeing. he kept bumping into walls and was walking cautiously. we took him to the vet that night and they confirmed he couldn't see. they kept him over night, talked to them the next morning. mac was normal, except he just couldn't see. as the week went on and spending almost every night at the vet, mac just kept getting worse. the doctors took tests and said they thought it was a liver shunt. i guess it's very common in yorkies. late saturday night we could tell he was just in pain. he hadn't been himself in the past 3 days. he wasn't playful at all, wouldn't eat or drink. we had to feed with with a syrnge. they kept him again saturday night. called the vet on sunday morning after church and they said he didn't get any better through the night. steven and i had a hard decision to make. there was a surgery possible for mac, but of course very expensive and they weren't sure he was strong enough to survive it. so...sunday morning we made the decision to have him put down. we knew it was best for him, we knew he was in pain.
i never thought i would be that person to be so attached to a dog to even consider a surgery. i've been around dogs my entire life, but i've never had to put a dog down that was only 8 weeks old. so far, this is the hardest thing i've ever had to do.
we had already planned on going out to my parents that day anyway, so we left for their house after the vet. on the way out, my mom calls me and said she had called friends or ours wanted to bless us with a new puppy.
meet macy...
now by no means will she ever replace mac! but i am glad we have her. i think a lot of people were surprise by how fast we got a new puppy, but honestly... i don't think i could have come home and not have a dog here. that just gives me more time to to think about the past week, and i don't want to think about it. steven is absolutely in love with her. giving in everytime she whines, especially at night. i wake up to find her in our bed because of steven....i wonder if he's gonna be a push over like this when we have kids....
