Funny License Plate

September 11th

9 years later, our world is no less confusing!
However, today, I am just as aware that God has it all under control! Nothing will happen that isn't completely in his clutch.

“These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world.” John 16:33

Peace....it's what we crave!! Peace is what HE brings!!

Transitions

I cannot believe how long it's been since I blogged.
Chloe and Ryan graduated from Lakeville South on June 11th.
Seth and Ashley were married on July 25th.
Ryan left for college on Saturday. He is officially in his dorm room, and trying out for a spot on the drum line at NDSU.
Chloe leaves for college on Wednesday.
What an amazing time of transitions.
To top that off....Luke turns 16 on Tuesday, and is hopefully going to get his license.
It's all just so hard to believe how time flies by!

Wimbledon and the 4th of July

Watching Nadal and Derdych play the finals at Wimbledon this morning. Nadal is probably going to win.
It's also the 4th of July.
Time of the annual Erickson Family Party at our house.
The rain has come...and gone for right now.
Time to get the house ready, the pool vacuumed, the food prepared.

Seth and Ashley get married in 3 weeks from TODAY!

OPEN

I am reading OPEN by Andre Agassi. It's such a fantastic book!!! I would highly recommend this book to anybody! Andre has a way with words. SO GOOD!

Saturday Night

On the eve of Mother's Day I just want to state that I love my children more than anything!! They are the absolute light of my life. I wish they lived with me, and I wish that they thought more of me....but truly, I love them unconditionally! I always wanted to be a mom...I just didn't know it would be like this. BUT...I am a mom...and I will take it however it is. My children are amazing!!!
I love you Seth, Chloe and Luke! More than you could understand!!!!!
