Excitement of the Weekend!

Well, it is official - for the first time Bay has chosen to go to a party instead of going to AU with the family =( "Mom I can't miss Ella's party, everyone is going." So she decided she would stay with my parents & told me to call them & make sure they would be home & then since I was calling them to tell them she would spend the night & they could take her to church on Sunday. Thankfully, Moppy & Poppy were going to be in Bham & can take her to the party. So off we will go in the morning with Auntie Kim & the 2 boys to A-Day in Auburn.
Watch out AU here comes the Martin brothers & more importantly - I owe you Mom & Dad.
William did FABULOUS in his school program today!! He knew every word, hand motion & smiled at all the right times.
On a sad note, please pray for WFM5 his best friend os moving in the morning & I am not quite sure he undertands how far away Virginia is. I think it will hit hard when he wants to play with Russell next week & I have to explain it again. We said good-bye to Russell tonight & I was crying b/c this is his first best friend & there aren't many kids out there like Russell.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY COTTON! (Bay's first friend ever)
I will post AU pics when I can, 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 ...
