one week later

i am doing pretty good on my lenten promises.  today i pulled out the no chocolate paper...i have always loved sweets, especially chocolate and can say that i am addicted to it.  i have been praying for God's help in helping me be strong and resist temptations because my clothes are not fitting well and i'm really upset with myself about it, but yet i can't say no to that ice-cream sitting in the freezer or the candy stash i have in my drawer at work.  

i have some great photos to post this week of caleb and brian that i hope to get up by saturday.
