GOING BACK TO ZACHARY!

A little over a month ago Ivy and I began earnestly praying and fasting for a home of our own in Zachary. We loved living in Zachary especially because of the schools and the home town feel of it. When we were forced to leave and moved to Baton Rouge we always knew that we would return it was just a matter of having to accept Heavenly Father's will for us at that time. Yesterday we were approved for our first home and guess where it is? ZACHARY!

Our home is beautiful! It is on a a quiet street in the heart of Zachary. It is on a corner tree covered lot. It has a heart shaped fish pond in the backyard which is breathtaking. We have a gazebo and several fruit trees in the backyard. The landscaping is very nice and compliments the house. It is a 10 room home and Ivy and I will have one portion of our home to ourselves which is what I am very excited about!!

It is old fashioned and cozy just what we both prayed for. I know that this home was sent to us by Heavenly Father knowing our hearts and our desires for our family. He knew that we would need a large home because Teayona and Arielle would be coming home. He knew before we could ever imagine their return.

How wonderful Heavenly Father is. How he has blessed our lives and answered our righteous prayers. The children are so happy to be returning to Zachary and have already began to pack. We close on the 21st of this month. You can rest assured that we will be packed and ready to go well before the closing date.

I will post a picture of our new home soon. I will continue to rejoice and give thanks to my Heavenly Father and my brother Jesus Christ.

Good Night and God bless.
