Karlyn update

Hey everybody!  Can you believe Thanksgiving is next week!!  I'm very excited.  I'm also thankful for this blog!  It's been such an accountability for me and makes me feel more connected to y'all. 

I shared with y'all a long time ago about struggles I'm having.  Right now I have a BIG decision to make.  And you're one of the firsts I've talked to about this.  I've been a BeautiControl Director for 3 years.  I only became one because I knew it was where God was leading me.  Over the past year and a half I've really struggled with being capable of handling all that Directorship requires.  I've also learned a lot about what God expects of me as a mom, wife, and leader in our church.  So, it's becoming harder and harder for me to juggle everything and make sure nothing is being neglected. 

I completely believe in this company and what they provide for women, but I'm feeling a stronger tie to my kids, Ryan, my church, and ministries I want to be involved in.  So please pray for me that if I need to back down from Directorship and take a lesser role that I can do that with confidence that it's what God is moving me to and not what I'm moving to.
 
Also my mom is having a heart catherization on November 30th which I know no details about because she still hasn't told me about it!

We will keep praying for your aunt, Ginny!  I know that's heavy on your mind.  Amber praying for y'all and those babies!  Jenifer praying for you and your relationships!  Cindy praying for y'all and baby boy!

Glad to be back!

I'm very thankful to have y'all to do this with.  I've missed the accountability over the past month.  I have had a really tough year emotionally.  It would take hours for me to explain it all but I deeply struggle daily with frustrations that are out of my control.  It's been a tough lesson to really trust that God will provide for me and that I can't do anything on my own power.

We find out Monday morning at 9:30 if this baby is a girl or boy and I'm ready to know and get things rolling.  Rice harvest is almost over and beans are right around the corner.  Sawyer and Knox are growing and wearing me out ( I haven't gained any weight yet because of them:)  I'm doing Speech Therapy 2 days a week at the same preschool and BeautiControl too.

Really Really miss all of you and can't wait to hear more from everyone.
