I Love The Flower Girl


Here is a preview of the amazing wedding photos.  Abigail definitely stole the show.  She was the best flower girl ever.  OK so I'm biased but she even cleaned up her petals when she was finished.  We had a great time.  It was nice to let loose and have fun.  We danced all night and were very silly.  Many more pictures and stories to come.  I also have dance recital pictures to upload.  Till then ...............

When You Say You Love me

Sometimes we forget to slow down and hear the things that are really important.

I Hear You.  I Feel you kiss my cheek every morning, and without fail you whisper those treasured words.... I LOVE YOU

Dearest Husband,
Know I love you with every beat of my heart.  I am grateful I got to see you through others eyes last night.  Your energy and passion for a better world continually makes me fall in love with you over and over again.  You walk into the room and my heart melts.  I live for our conversations about any and every thing. I watch the clock and wait for your phone call to come home. You listen with all your heart and hear every word.  Your ability to listen to all sides of a story make you rare. Your strength and conviction are truly inspirational.  Believe you are a positive force to be reckoned with.  Believe you make a difference.  Believe you make people better for having known you because I am better for having known, and loved you. Congratulations for making it through another year.  You are an amazing teacher.  

Love
Your Best Friend

Manic Monday

As I sit down with my calendar I realize this week is just too much.  I cancelled on tonight's bunko to finish orders due tom.  Then get a call from the in laws saying we are having dinner with family that came into town.  I adore Chris' aunt and haven't seen her in many months, but yikes what a time crunch.  Also in that is Abigail's last two rehearsals before the recital at 4:00 on Sat which we will promptly leave so she can go to a wedding rehearsal to be a flower girl.  This wedding includes family that will be staying with us so that means a mad dash to clean the guest room/craft room.  Chris has an awards banquet on Tuesday night.  Throw in all therapies for Jack the last special days at school for Abigail meaning shopping for a bathing suit for splash day etc etc.  I am a little overwhelmed this manic monday.  There's to hoping it all gets done or that I realize life will go on even if it doesn't get done.  Listening to the song makes me realize all these things require me to figure out what I'm going to wear. Do I even have that many dresses? UUUUGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH!

Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day!

Hold you Miracles close and treasure every moment!


Miracle - Celine Dion


You're my life's one Miracle
Everything I've done that's good
And you break my heart with tenderness,
And I confess it's true
I never knew a love like this till you...
You're the reason I was born
Now I finally know for sure
And I'm overwhelmed with happiness
So blessed to hold you close
the one that I love most
With all the future has so much for you in store
Who could ever love you more?
The nearest thing to heaven,
You're my angel from above
Only God creates such perfect love
When you smile at me, I cry
And to save your life I'll die
With a romance that is pure heart,
You are my dearest part
Whatever it requires,
I live for your desires
Forget my own, needs will come before
Who could ever love you more?
Well there is nothing you could ever do,
To make me stop loving you
And every breath I take,
Is always for your sake
You sleep inside my dreams and know for sure
Who could ever love you more?

I Love To Sleep!




Is there any thing more precious than a sleeping baby?  

Medicaid Here We Come

Yeah!   Prayers answered!  Thank you for all your support.  I had a meeting this morning and we are moving forward with the Medically Dependent Child Program.  This will gives us Medicaid and nursing hours to use when we need.  There are also budgets for things if we need to make modifications to our home to best suit Jackson.  I am on cloud nine right now.  I can't explain the burden lifted from my shoulders.  Yeah!

Thanks Be To God

Thank you God for making me who I am 

Thank you God for giving me Passion for life
Thank you God for giving me Strength and Conviction to stand up for what I believe in
Thank you God for giving me Love in my heart instead of Hate
Thank you God for the perspective, and vision  I have for the future
Thank you God for all the Miracles I have been privileged to witness
Thank you God for giving me Today and all that today means
Thank you God for this and every day I have left on Earth

Some of you know what kind of week I have had and the struggles in my heart.  Thank you for listening and being my voice of reason. I love you all.
