STOP YELLING

Today on our way to bible study the boys were yelling at each other and I looked at them and said "STOP YELLING". I thought to myself, I just did what I told them not to do... When am I going to get this mom thing down?

I love you

Last night Nathan had his sweet friend Caleb over . They were sitting in Tim's big green chair watching a movie and Caleb looks over at Nathan and says:

Caleb- Nathan I love you!
Nathan- I love you too!

It was so sweet. It made me think if a 3 year old can tell his friend he loves him I should tell people how much they mean to me more often. Thank you for being apart of the Knox Family!

Friends

The past few days I have been sick. Last night was SWITCH which is one of my favorite nights of the week. I was so sick I had to go home (which was the first time in 8 years). My sweet friends Ashley and Kristi went to SWITCH last night to help my husband since there was a lot of leaders gone. They will never know how much it meant to me that they would stop what they were doing to go help my sweet husband. I hope everyone is blessed with great friends!

TV

The other day Nathan asked me to come to his room so we could talk. I walked to his room and sat on his bed with him, he looks up at me with his big blue eyes and says:

Nathan- Mom I like to say "shut up"
Me- What did you say?
Nathan- I like to say "shut up"
Me- Where did you learn that?
Nathan- On TV.

Can I say no more Toy Story in the car!!!!

Food

Food is on of my favorite words. Tim and I love to eat anything that is bad for us. We could drink Dr. Pepper and Sweet Tea all day and forget all about water. Starting in the morning we are going to try to eat a lot better for our health and to lose weight before we go on a trip in a month. This is what we are going to eat:
Fruit's
Vegetable's
Whole Grain's
Meat
Dairy
WATER
This is really hard for us because we love cookies and chips. We can have something bad one time a week=) Is it hard for you to eat healthy? Why?

$750

A few weeks ago Tim and I were getting gas. When we put our card in the gas pump it said YOU CARD IS DENIED. I call our bank and we had 0.03 in our checking account. I thought to myself "Tim does not get paid for 5 more days what are we going to do, we have NO food or gas now?" As we are driving home Tim calls a friend of ours and tells them he wants to clean their windows for FREE. Are you kidding me we have no money, we could make a lot of money if you charged them!!! (I thought to myself)

When we got home there was $100 in our mail box. We went to a park and a lady gave me $100 and said the Lord told her to give that to us. Within 4 days we had been given $750 before Tim got paid. God is so GOOD!!!!!! He will always provide for us. I am so blessed that I am married to Tim and that he leads our family.

Driving me Crazy

Today I was putting Nathan's shoes on and he looked at me and said "mom you are driving me crazy!". It broke my heart, because I have said that to him and I never want him to think that. What I learned today is think before I speak (kids are listening to everything you say). I did ask Nathan to forgive me for ever saying that to him.

Washing Windows

As most of you can see I have not been blogging a lot. I love to read blogs I am just not good at writing them! I had to tell you what happened today. As many of you know I am so in love with my husband. Today we went to wash windows (that is a little job we do on the side to make a little money) which I don't really like doing but I will always go if it means I get to spend time with Tim. As we are washing windows Tim keeps telling me how I keep missing spots and I just want to hit him in the head with my brush (I didn't). A few minutes later this family of 10 kids and 2 moms come and ask us what church we go to? I thought to my self how do they know we go to church? We talk to them for a bit. Then a few minutes later a man comes by and says Christ washes window! After that guy went by another man says God bless you guys! I then look down and see that we both have shirts on from church. I am so glad I didn't hit my sweet husband in the head!!!!
