"This is a story that is often untold, and overlooked. A raw adventure of fighting the elements of illness, as a young wife and mother by seeking Jesus first. Start from the beginning, and see how the Lord can take a very broken and ill individual and bring about a truly unique LIFE and LOVE story." - BRYNN (& Jeremey and Tatum).

Making a house a home in a year!

A year ago TODAY, my husband and I finished packing up, and moved our humble little belongings a quarter of a mile down the street to our new home .. (link to the post 1 year ago). http://thewilsons3.blogspot.com/2010/10/were-moving.html

(The year before we had spent living in dorm rooms, the first one was a half dorm room, the size of, or smaller than most peoples master BATHrooms. It had a bed ,one dresser, and a small restroom. That is all it fit, and at the time it was ALL we needed.)

October 6th of last year, was a new start for us, as I wobbled my way up the stairs with a growing pregnant belly, to the wonderful smell of fresh paint. I checked out an empty bedroom that would soon be occupied by the gymnast inside my belly, and never could have imagined how my life would have transformed in just one year.

Now, that once empty house is furnished and lived in, and filled with so many baby toys, that most days its hard to see the ground. The Lord never fails us, no matter how dire the situation may have seemed. Truly, we didn't deserve to be blessed with a condo, we still don't deserve it.

My view from the deck this morning! The house was a little too messy to snap pictures.
