Daily Supports


My Father and Stepmom

In my life support means having the confidence there is someone there to be a confidant, positive critic, and an emotional sounding board.  I am daily supported by my husband.  He provides me affirmation of love and encouragement.  I receive support from my father and stepmother through our morning conversations to discuss the day’s events and saying “I love you” and have a great day.  My staff in their consistent professional work in the office supports me. I also receive support from extended family and friends through open conversations and sharing of our life’s events.  My sons provide support to me by completing their chores at home.  It is so sweet to watch them grow.  My greatest support is my spiritual relationship with God.  I believe God provides me daily peace and wisdom over the affairs of my life.  I am supported by the words in the bible to move through life with a confidence that I am daily protected by God’s love.



Me and my husband

A challenge I may face soon is looking for another house.  My husband and I are starting to lose confidence in our current school district.  We have live in our house over fourteen years.  Because our sons are nine and seven, we would like to find the idea home in a great school district.  We are faced with the decision on where to live, how much to invest in a new home, what do we do with our current home, and the school district. During this time, my husband and I my must provide emotional support to each.  We need the practical advise of our parents, family, and friends regarding making this new major purchase.  We also need the support and advise of friends on finding a great school district.  I believe it is crucial to a person's well being to know they are daily supported. I believe it provides the necessary encouragement need to grow and development positively in every area of life.
