First "Field Day"

Bay is growing up too fast, after all she is 6 & 3/4 (don't forget the last part). She had "May Day Play Day" at her school today (kinda' like what we called field day) & I think Mommy had a lot of fun as well, but I am too tired to tell. I tried to teach a group of first graders how to play kickball - don't laugh I really like that game - I think they may have gotten the idea at least that you take turns kicking & going after the ball. I am pretty sure they did NOT get the idea of running the bases & stopping the play. We will try that another day. Although if I got 12 first graders to take turns at least for a few minutes that that could be success.
WFM5 is on his first "go home from school playdate" he was so excited he wanted to leave for school in his pj's at 730 this morning. School doesn't start until 9 so he has a while to wait. I am so glad he has sweet friends.
Whitty, well he just hangs around with the best of us.
I also found a new blog group for mommies "THE MOMTAGE." You can find the button on the bottom of the page.
If I could find the camera I could post pics, but I will have to find the camera first. But, for those of you out-of-town they have all 3 grown taller, all 3 talk all the time, all 3 have huge imaginations, & all 3 laugh more than anyone I know.
His Child, Jocelyn

Christmas Letter 2023

Merry Christmas! How are we here?       How has this year gone by so fast?            How is it almost 2024? I can tell you how . . . because there are 4 kids (in 2 cities), 1 dad (sometimes traveling for work), 1 mom & her minivan, multiple teams, multiple schools & 1 cute puppy. Whew!! Baylor is 20 & LOVING her apartment life in Auburn! She is studying hard & keeps a busy schedule with tailgating, church events & general TALKING with friends. She is doing some babysitting & pre-teaching over her Christmas break & some more TALKING with friends. William will be 18 any day now! He just made the Men's Soccer Varsity squad for his Senior year & so that makes the 3rd team of this year! He will be joining big sister in Auburn come August & I am sure his dorm room will be a little less complicated. He is half-way through his Senior year & doing well in school. He studies, works, plays soccer & then a little more soccer. He & Whitt are tryi

So Many Things . . .

 So many things have happened . . . So many things good things & so many hard things. So many things that we cannot explain & things we saw coming years ago. So many people & so many places. This momma's heart has had to learn to watch them fly & soar. I keep thinking back to what my Daddy said at our wedding " . . . you give your children roots & wings." It is hard to give them roots that run deep & how you instill true values in them. It is also hard to watch them open their wings ready to soar. They are soaring! They are learning SOOO much & watching these adventures is a true gift. I know one day I will look back as this being a great joy of my life. I am experiencing hurt but it is amidst such beauty & growth. My baby girl has started to fly & she is flying strong. As soon as she started off on her journey she hit a few unexpected bumps & she took a minute, re-grouped & then just kept on going. She was strong & brave. S
