Three gifts that were 'Plan B's.

  1. 1. making biscuits this morning and Dominic wanted to help with every part, so glad I slowed down and let him help
    2. a package that arrived broken, I realized just how easy the return was
    3. having a menu plan allowed me to switch meals around since I didn't have time to make homemade no-fry refried beans

  2. 1. The Pilot. We had planned to keep the van for a long time, that plan changed with the wreck. Thankful for God's provision and peace.

    2. A change in plans for last night meant I had time to sit and watch Downton Abbey with Todd.

    3. A long walk that was not part of today's plan.

  3. 1. attending Southeastern when my original college choice proved to not be the right one was a big step to do the hard, but correct thing and I've never regretted it
    2. when getting pregnant didn't happen the way I'd dreamed, a sweet baby boy needed parents and I'm so thankful we were available and ready to answer that call to adopt
    3. James' last job change was based on pure obedience, not the desire of our hearts at all, but has proven to be exactly where he should be, and I'm so grateful.
    (sidenote: It seems that all of these "plan Bs" are based out of my original desires not being God's will, but He wisely guided me to His perfect plan for my life. Looking back, the back up plan sure seems so absolutely right, that I wonder how it was hard to accept then? Isn't that interesting? Wondering how many other areas He has led me a direction and I disobeyed.....hmmm.)
