wondering

hi all...
i was wondering if anyone was still listening to this blog?
jeff and i are well...
i think we are both still wondering where the Lord is leading.

i am missing both of my boys and trying not to focus on the 'what ifs'
have been thinking alot about 'shiloh'....my baby, and the place where God resides...i am comforted by my childs name...

having some difficulty sleeping- i guess that is to be expected? i dont mind so far...it gives me some quiet time to pray.

God bless,
Leslie

give us a shout out if you continue to seek this blog for our progress.

p.s. i start outpatient therapy later on today...should be interesting.

  1. Lesley,

    Of course I still follow this blog...been waiting to hear from you guys on it. I hope that God is helping you find some of the answers you are looking for. As we both know it sometimes takes longer than we want to wait. I have been thinking of Shiloh often to, God keeps either bringing his name to my sight or putting people around me that his life has also touched. Just like the event in Ft. Worth that we went to last weekend and we got to see Amber and her family because the CBR helped with the rebuilding of their house.
    The fact that her little boy that they almost lost wanted to be a bull rider was really neat since we do that kind of stuff as you know. As Jason and I were sitting there looking at their family we were talking about how God had put two family's in the same place that had been touched by Shiloh's sweet short life here on this earth. We thought how amazing. I wanted that little boy so bad for you that my heart just breaks and hurts. I don't understand it but in my life I have come to accept unanswered questions for the most part and just let God carry me thru the pain. Just one more thing, Shiloh's service was very hard for me but I can't remember the last time that I have ever felt God's presence so stong as we sat in that beautiful old wooden building and sang such beautiful music. We truly felt God's arms around that building while we all sat inside.
    Hope your therapy is going good and you are all in good health. Please call me anytime you want to talk.

    Luv ya, Nicki

  2. Just checked today to see if there was word how you and your family were doing. Makes me sad, but so encouraged by your never ending faith in Our God. Many are praying for you still, as your dear friend Joey requests for you to be lifted up by the prayer team here at Fellowship Church.
    Love your songs, and sweet pictures of you and your little Beau. May God surround you with His presence, during those times of unrest and sadness. Much endurance as you start your therapy, today, also.

    In Him,

  8. Hi sweet Leslie -
    was sitting here preparing for a Sunday school lesson and decided to click on your blog link that is saved on our toolbar. Yes, we continue our desire to know how you all are doing, what God is revealing and how you are progressing with your rehab. I find peace and comfort in hearing your voice and reading your entries. If it is therapuetic for you, then by all means, continuing posting - we love to hear from you...and so does the Lord during those hours when you can't sleep.
    We love and miss you,
    Keg, Linda and Ellie

  10. Hi Leslie-
    Its Becky here from Baylor Grapevine! I have been checking periodically for updates and wondering how you are coping. We (the Baylor crew) think of you often, and I will continue to pray that God will give you a peace that passes understanding! I hope to hear more updates on you and your family. I was reading to my daughter the other day from her Kid's bible and all of a sudden we started reading about Shiloh. I knew of the passage and I know we talked about it together, but it made reading it more personal to me. I grieve for your loss still, but I am so thankful for God's work in your life! How is your precious daughter? I'm sure she constantly brings a smile to your face and is a true blessing and light in your life! Give my best to Jeff!
