Yada Yada

There is a new great series of books I am addicted to....The Yada Yada Prayer Group....the jist is....it is about a 3rd grade teacher who portrays herself as the "good Christian". Or so she thinks...She attends a women's conference and gets placed into a prayer group with a lot of different kinds of people, an ex-con, a newly christian japenese student...etc....believe me, lots of different types...as they pray together they become like the closest of sisters and Jodi (the main character) realizes that she is a sinner just like everyone else...

These books have really lifted my spirit to the Lord and given me a few ideas to try myself...for instance, every day I walk to the end of my street in the morning because I carpool with a friend to work....well after reading these books, I now pray out loud during the whole walk and I praise Jesus more than anything now! It's been eye opening....I suggest these books if you are looking for a good read! Let me know what you think!

By the way MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Thanks for the great blogging this year...I like this way to outlet my happy and frustrating times! Keep em coming!

We also will receive psychological services for our family. She was diagnosed with Relationship Disorder, but that isn't something that she will have foreve, it is something that can be turned around...we are very excited and I'll keep everyone posted on how things are progressing! Gotta get back to work! Thanks for the prayers...keep them coming!
