I can't believe we're already well into October! With fall activities, Bible studies, small groups and soccer season in full swing, our weeks seem to fly right by. Plus, it must be the birthday month of the year, because everyone we know is having a party. Our calendar is so full, and our free time is so limited. Even so, it's times like these that life is so rich!
On to answered prayer...
My consulting practice has really taken off. I have been receiving a steady stream of referrals since the moment I started accepting clients. The most beautiful thing is that I am able to do all of my work from home during the afternoon or evening when Liliana is sleeping. It's so rewarding to help parents implement effective parenting strategies and support them through difficult situations. And though nothing compares to being a full-time mommy, it sure is a blessing to help others in their time of need.
I am so thankful for the opportunities God has given me. This is a wonderful life, and I am excited to see what is in store for us. Although we've experienced a great number of trials in the past few years, the blessings have been far more plentiful. I thank the Lord for bringing us through the refining fire so that we may experience life with hearts full of gratitude and eyes fixed upon Him.
Thanks for continuing this journey with me. ~Ramona

Ramona-
It is so wonderful to hear you talk about how the Lord is blessing you. The fact that you can see these blessings through your tears is a true testament of your faith. I was sitting in church on Sunday night listening to the sermon that Ryan was preaching, and while I was certainly thinking of myself throughout it, I was also thinking of you. If you get a chance, I highly recommend that you download the Sunday evening sermon from the website and listen - I think it will be worth your time.
God Bless,
Julie
Just FYI - I was reading somewhere last week that more people in the U.S. have their birthday on October 5 than any other day of the year. So, you may be right on with the observation that October IS birthday month!
