I love the outdoors, so gardening, taking walks in the country and being with my family is what I do in my spare time.
I live in a little town of Tekamah, NE. (N of Omaha about 50 miles). I’m 42 and a mom of 3 boys in different cycles of their lives. (JR H/H School/College). WOW, they keep me busy. We also have invited one of our girls (we’ve ministered & loved on since she was in 5th grade/same age as my son, but she’s not going to school yet) to live with us. Between Church, Good New Club, & Youth Group, & boys activities, I guess I don’t have a lot of time. I have enjoyed “A Confident Heart” SOOOOOOO MUCH! I asked for it for Christmas too & got it! I have been blessed to be a part of this study! It has opened my eyes & heart! I truly love to spend time with my family watching TV, Movies, Video, Games, eating or whatever. During the day (which is my spare time) I usually do my Bible Studies & listen to worship music! It’s so peaceful & quiet! I AM BLESSED!

I work a full time job then come home to be a full time mom and wife. 🙂 My free time is limited like every mom/wife out there. When I have those precious free moments I love to….umm…I guess clean. Maybe that’s my problem. I’ve put myself on “hold” to take care of everyone else but “me”.
With this wonderful book and the great messages, I’m learning to find myself again. I have forgotten about “me”. I forgot how important I was….especially to the Lord. There’s no way to repay you for the happiness that I’ve found through your book but do know this: I pray and thank the Lord for you every day! Thank you for your sacrifice! It’s immeasurable.
I’m from PA, but grew up in South Jersey. I’m 43 and still trying to figure out what ‘free time’ is… with two kids, two dogs, and working full time I don’t find much.
