Go Rebels!


Watch out world she can cheer & she loves it! Bay cheered with some of her sweet friends last night at the high school basketball game. We have entered a whole new world. She has wanted to be a cheerleader since she was 1 & now she wants it even more. She was great! She may even be good to those observers who were not her very biased mommy.

One day we may see these cheerleaders on the AU sidelines. Bay & the boys were wondering why she was cheering for the Rebels (thinking they had accidentally gone to an Ole Miss school) but I assured them that the Vestavia Hills Rebels were OK to cheer for since this is where they will be going to high school a LONG time from now.

We are staying home today & Bay & I will be watching Miss America tonight - GIRL TIME! We started this last year & my mom was able to join us - we will eat sweets & girlie foods & probably pink foods & pull for Miss Alabama, or whoever state we know that makes it into the Top 10.

We have Missions Week at our precious church this coming week & then Mommy can start working on 2 Valentines parties & about 40 Valentines cards for kiddies.

His Child, Jocelyn

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...

Happy New Year 2025!

 Well, the end of 2024 caught us a little off-guard. So I am little late . . .  2024 started off with WFM5 turning 18! CRAZY! In the middle of 2024 Bay turned 21! CRAZY! Whitty is 17 & Baby Lee is in middle school! CRAZY! How can they be this old? How can 2 live in another city? How can the hubby be 50??! We had a lot of fun this year, we traveled & tailgated. We laughed & laughed some more.  We also grew this year inside & out, in times of tears & joy. We lost our sweet friend - Kim Haynes, our Auntie Kim. We had moments of telling her daughter that Mommy went to Heaven, we had hard conversations & times to say goodbye.  We had times of telling EK how wonderful her momma was. 2024 also sent another to AUBURN! Momma may have cried the whole way home. But to see him thrive brought Momma such joy.  Baylor (21) is studying education at AU & is having a blast with her cute friends, in her cute house. She stays busy with schools, concerts ...
