#3: Quietly on his way to the PGA


Here is my #3 baby. He has decided his new obsession is going to be golf. We are going with it. However, #3 was a hot topic of conversation today as he is SHY!!! & won't talk to anyone else if Mommy is around & someone was worried he would be that way when he is older. I know he is different than the #1 & #2, but I will appreciate & embrace the way God has made him. Does it bother me that sometimes he comes across as rude. Sure, but I know he is not. He really is just shy - not a big deal. I was worried about it & told someone that I am not used to this, but she said, "that is the way God made him." Exactly right, God does NOT make mistakes. Trust me he talks & is super smart, he just may not talk when you want him to. Do I "eat it up" how much he favors his Mommy? - Yes! Do I wish he talked more to others? - Sure. But is he a gift? - YES! YES! YES! My ovaries did not always work & ONE day they did & God made Whitty & blessed me & SuperDaddy & gave us his funny self. I knew I would have 3 babies, but not when or how & I love that God made the perfect plan & HE ALWAYS KNEW. So if I baby him a little - we will survive, because each baby - no matter how many - is a GIFT from HEAVEN.
I only have them at home for a few more years so I will take these days slow & we may not have a full calendar & we may take our time getting to full day school & I may not go back to work so we may not have fancy cars & new furniture, BUT we are following God's plan & doing His will for our family to do our best "to raise them in the nurture & admonition of the Lord." I have taken 2 vows/sacraments in the church = to honor my husband & to raise my children in the Lord. This is my calling, my ministry, my love, my life.
Some days he will be quieter than the others & one day he will surprise us all & when he speaks in public, without holding tight to Mommy, we will know it is something special that God had planned from before the beginning of time. . . . .Just a little something on the Mommy's heart . . . Thanks for listening.

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 ...

I am going .. .

In the middle of a boring Super Bowl we put the kiddos in some pjs. So as I was getting the Baby a fresh diaper I told WFM5 to get his clothes off so we could put pjs on him. Now something you may not know about WFM5 is that some nights he sleeps with JUST pjs on. Who knows?? So anyway he took off his underwear & Marty said "Wait buddy leave on your underwear." What is a boy to say to that? "No daddy - I am going blonde tonight." WHAT? He meant "commando" TOO CUTE! ~jocelyn

Birthdays & the Zoo

A "Happy Birthday!" to my Uncle Bill. Yes, I am a day late, but the fabulous singing my kids did on your voicemail tonight should make up for that. I am so sorry that VBS falls close to your Bday & you don't always get a card - just the kids singing on the phone. If you do not know my Uncle Bill he is AWESOME! My kids love him & I think they think that Uncle Bill is coming to see them in a few weeks instead of coming for Maggie's wedding. So for all of you coming with Uncle Bill watch out they will probably come out of the gates running to him. Yes, they love everyone, but there is something special about Bill. So Happy Bday & we cannot wait to see you. I will make up for the lateness of this by letting you spend more time with the kiddos in a few weeks - yes, you should be excited about this. So, the zoo, our sweet Auntie Kim came to Bham with her niece & nephew today & we took the kids to the zoo. We love the zoo! They have a train, an Auburn tig...
