You Mean Dinosaurs are Real?

I personally think that some people that couldn't get a job made the whole dino thing up so that they could get a job. Well the Bruso's are doing well. We have had a winter of sick but are surviving. We said goodbye yesterday to Adam's employee. He has decided to move back to Michigan. Don't ask. He was crying about leaving the company and said that this was his dream job. A true testament to my hubby I think. We are back into the single man crunch as we decide what direction we want to take the company. We are feeling the economic crunch come in the form of people not paying on time. But God is good and the bills will be paid just not on time! We are still getting new clients though so I don't know what to think or expect. We will see who God brings our way next. In my life I continue to feel stretched by God. I am using my learned couponing skills to open a food pantry at church. It is mainly for the members that are struggling because of the economy. I find the coupons to be a good way to give way beyond my means because I can purchase so much with them. Lets see my best purchase was at Walgreens where I got $375.00 of goods for $42.00. It was an exciting day! I have a little more to do before I am running full force. I am also planning a women's retreat for our church this spring. A God led moment that is scary but exciting as I will be the speaker. I am hoping to get more than 2 women to show up. Actually because this is truly a God thing I am not too worried about numbers. God has been filling my mind constantly with scriptures to use and what points to make so I am very excited to share. Adam and I have also been helping a family that is in real need. There is abuse running rampant in it. We have been ministering and helping as best as we know how but it has not been easy. There is a light at the end of the tunnel though and I think that God's will is prevailing. Just another time consuming, not to mention emotionally consuming thing. Things with the boys are still good. They are ever entertaining/exhausting. Isaac's new word it Basketball Hoop. He still loves all things balls and cannot stand his brother getting attention. Brennan gave me a laugh the other day when he started screaming "Mom my thumb, my thumb" I came over and saw a blister. I asked where he got it. He told me that he drank too much juice and his body was leaking. I am not going to be encouraging him to be a Dr! Any way I can ignore the crying no longer. More later.
