Well, to all of you who participated in my little guessing game on Monday……thanks!!!

Here’s a look back!

Several of you were very close-

But #1…….we went sledding up at my sister’s house-

& yes, I broke a nail-because, I, Kim Dillon, for the first time I can remember, went down the hill on a sled.

It was much more fun than I thought it would be

(especially since I was riding down the hill on a sled with Ana).

(Ana going down by herself……I promise I was on the back of that sled a few times-I have the broken nail to prove it!)

& #2: A few of you hit this one out of the park.

Yes, Dave & I have started to realize we are outgrowing our house……..we are far from “ready to move,” but we have looked at several houses on line, & we have begun to think about what we might be able to afford.

Mostly, we would like to be able to host bigger groups of people, & be able to have a place for overnight guests.

Also, I must confess-a dream of mine is to have a separate school room, with a door I can close.

In two years, (yikes!!!!) we will have another homeschooler, & right now, we have nowhere to put another desk!


The one problem with looking at houses online-is it produces some discontent in my heart for what the Lord has graciously provided right now in our lives.

So…….when I read this in my Bible reading this morning……….

“Unless the LORD builds a house,
the work of the builders is wasted.”
Psalm 127:1


……….I knew the LORD was reminding me to be content to wait on His perfect timing & provision. (I know the verse doesn’t SPECIFICCALY state that-but, we should be willing to wait while the Lord PREPARES our new house-gets the current owners out of it, & gets us into it!)

After the long waits we have had with two international adoptions, I think it will be interesting to see how the Lord works on my heart with this wait!

(I doubt ANYTHING will compare to THAT wait!!!)
