Happy Saturday (or what ever today is). So yes, moving day was last week Thursday and we have officially enjoyed a week in our new home. This has been quite a busy week for our family. Even with getting rid of so much stuff, we still own quite alot and yet still not as much as other people. I pray as I continue to grow, that I will continue to learn what to keep and what not to keep, because I’m sure that we still kept more than we needed to.
Anyhow, making the place truly feel like home will take some time, but we are thankful for the blessing God has placed in our lives with our new home and location. Thank you all for your prayers, who have followed along with me on this journey and for anyone who have just discovered AskLatisha and would be interested in reading my journey toward this new season, please check out my blog series “Transitions: Waiting for a Season of Change.”
I would like to apologize for not being a very engaged blogger this week, but you know why. I would also like to share with you my “Moving Day Journey and Thoughts” really soon. I wish you a very blessed weekend. Check out the latest at AskLatisha, my favorite post read this week and so much more. I hope you enjoy this awesome weekend party.

Battle Worn Boots by Betty Draper from betty-wiseheartedwomen.blogspot.com– Christians are in a daily battle whether we realize it or not. Sometimes, we get so comfortable where we are, we hide away from the war zone and let our brothers and sisters fall, without even trying to help them. I wrote a poem called “Strong Soldier” which talks about me wanting to be a strong soldier God can use and not hide away from the battle.
