WARNING . . .

Sweet Bay has been out with the stomach bug. (Don't let Whitt hear you say "stomach bug" because then he goes & looks for a bug.) We have signs that she may be on the mend. We are going to be stuck in the house for a few days & that is hard for this VBS Director to do . . . I knew VBS was going way too well. We are praying hard that no one else gets whatever she has. PRAY, PRAY, PRAY!
We are missing our cousins that have all left town to go on vacation, but we will be back with them all next week.
I have yet to find my camera & obviously have not been out to get the disposable one developed.
We had a good Memorial Day at Mamaw's lake house. She is always so sweet to share her space with our wild crew.
We have VBS June 14 - 18 & then cannot wait for July when we get to see SOOO much of our family thanks to sweet Aunt Maggie for getting married so our TN family comes to visit. We will see our Martin amily cousins A LOT in July when we travel together & then steal them to bring them back to Bham for Bay's birthday. I promise pics soon.
Love, 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 ...
