Time Travel Tuesday

I don't have my button today...my hubby did a computer clean up and it was deleted :(, but that's OK I can still time travel with you all...

Today's travel ask you to jump into the future instead of revisiting the past. Annie asks...where do you see yourself in 5 years???

Let's see in five years my children will be about 14, 12, and 10... That right there is unbelievable in itself. I can't imagine parenting preteens and teenagers... I will definitely need to enlist the help of some of my friends that have kids that are older than mine to help me :)

In five years I could envision that God may move us to another city/state, although at present I am very happy in the city I live. However, I have learned that when God wants you somewhere, it is the best place for you to be.

I need to go get ready for work, so I will end with saying that I hope in five years I will be walking in sweet, intimate fellowship with God. I also hope that many of the struggles/strongholds I am dealing with presently will be part of my past. I would love to be walking in complete Freedom with our God!!!

Blessings today and everyday!!!

My two older kids are through the teen-age years, and my youngest is 14. I loved their teens: they weren't nearly as traumatic as I had thought. An older mom told me one time not to dread any particular phase (terrible twos, turbulent teens), but that each phase has its high and low points, and if the relationship has been good all along, with God's help, the rough times will go a little smoother. It's a neat time to discuss the "big issues" on almost an adult level.

Loved your last paragraph!

In 5 years I will have all teenagers. That is a crazy thought to me. 2 of them will be learning to drive and I'll be 41 years old.

Ever since my kids have hit school age it has seemed like time has flown by very quickly because the whole year is planned out for you (this event, then the next and then it is summer time).
