Joey and Sara’s Wedding April 21, 2008
We had a blast at all of the events for the wedding. My kiddos behaved wonderfully and were great troopers staying up later and waking up at the same time with naps only if they fit the schedule. I’m so thankful that God enabled them to be so flexible.
Baby Doll attached to a sweet lade (wife of groomsman) at the rehearsal. She was willing to take her during the wedding and walk around when needed. What a blessing to me! I was able to watch the entire wedding without interruption!
Little Man did a fabulous job as the ring “bear”. He was determined to have the real rings on his pillow, or he didn’t want to walk down the aisle. Sara was so sweet and let him do that. Thank you, Sara!!
I had a great time seeing all of my family. I miss being close to everybody so much. It isn’t easy for me, but God helps me along the way. I was reminded just yesterday that I have said to Him, “here and I; send me.” I totally mean that I am here for His service…and for me that has meant sacrificing being close to my family. I do hope that He is glorified with my life and that I am able to teach my children how to live for Christ.
May God bless y’all!

I’m a bit overwhelmed right now, because wordpress has changed a lot of things on this site. I don’t have time to play around with things and didn’t know what some of the other things did. Now they’ve gone more high-tech on me, and I just don’t know about it. I reccon’ I’ll figure it out eventually.
Now to the reason I’m writing…I’m sorry that it’s been so long since I’ve posted pictures. I got a new camera for my birthday, and I honestly hadn’t taken the time to figure it all out. (Ya know, hooking it up to the computer to input things and all.) So, here I am with a little time while my two angels are sleeping.
As far as new things go…Baby Doll is still not walking on her own. My brother gets married Saturday, and I just knew that she’d be walking for his wedding. Oh, well. My Love thinks that she’s smart because she has the rest of her life to walk. She should take advantage of getting carried around while she can! 
Little Man has been going through some authority challenges. My Love and I had to have our first sit down time to discuss consequences. It went well, and Little Man is smart enough to understand what we told him. He has been acting better since the meeting. I think he realized that we mean business.
Okay, here are the photos. My girl angel has woken up and I must go to greet her! Love y’all.
Sweet Boy! April 2, 2008
Well, I just had to write quickly and say that my Little Man is the sweetest boy ever. Today we are watching a neighbor’s son (two days older than LM) while she is having a C-section. We’ll call him Jake. Jake is not much on napping or staying in his room for that matter, so I knew that quiet time would be an issue. However, I decided to do things like we always do at our house, but allow Jake to be in the room with LM. Jake cried when I left the room with the two boys on the bed reading books. I decided to keep going and see what happened. I walked into the living room and heard Little Man say, “It’s okay, Jake. Don’t be scared; I stay in here everyday. I’m here with you. You’re okay. I love you very much. You’re Momma will be back. She had to go to the hospital and have your baby. Don’t cry or we can’t play outside. I am here with you. God is up in the sky, and He will take care of you. Say, ‘Yes, sir’” No reply. “Say, ‘Yes, sir now!!!!’” I then intervened. I think that he was trying to make it all better. He just got a little too big for his britches! He’s quite a bossy one…I don’t know where he gets it from!
