2011 - Here we come!

2010 was great!
I know 2011 will be even better - because pretty soon (at least that is the plan) we will be DONE with diapers. What will I do with the extra money? Don't worry I know I will pay for car repairs & ER co-pays.
I learned A LOT about me & God during 2010 - He gave me planty of growing experiences - PLENTY as in enough to last me for a few years.
We had a great Christmas break & a re getting ready for WFM5's 5th birthday on Monday.
We spent 2 days in TN visiting relatives & have spent the last week with our cousins from St. Louis visiting - well, the boys spent more time with them than Bay & I did b/c my princess has been SO SICK. She has recovered & lost a tooth in the process. So we shall survive.
We loved all the gifts we received at Christmas and are looking forward to figuring out where we will put them all. You all spoiled the kiddos rotten - thanks, I think.
To our cousin Lisa - she is the WINNER - 1 of her gifts had 1200+ pieces & another one was colored moon sand. Lisa, we love you!
I pray that everyone has a family-filled 2011.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

P.S. What should I give myself if we can make it a whole year without a trip to the ER? I was going to say without a trip to the ER & orthopedist, but that is wishful thinking.

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 ...
