Tuesday Toddler Tales~Thunder and Lion King


I can't dissappoint all of you regardless of what I am going through. Plus, telling funny Jackson stories brings a smile to my face and gets my mind off of what's at hand, if only for a moment. So, here it goes...

We had a pretty good thunderstorm a few nights ago. It came out of nowhere fast. Jackson loved watching the rain, seeing the lightning, and listening for the thunder. He always asks us if we heard the thunder. He was all excited to hear the thunder and kept saying to Scott and I, "Did you hear that? Did you hear the thunder and lion king?" At first we didn't catch on but the more intently we listened we realized that instead of saying lightning he was saying lion king. And, no, he hasn't seen that movie. Oh how I love when he says silly things like that. I wish he never would grow out of it!

I don't remember how I found your blog, I think I clicked on a comment you made one time on The Peters Blog. Anyway I wanted to let you know how sorry I am for your loss. When I was reading your story it sounded identical to what I went through in Nov/Dec. I was 10 weeks pregnant went in for a routing doctors appt. they could not find the heartbeat at 12 weeks I miscarried. I can't say I know exactly how you feel but I have a very good idea. It looks like you had the same ONE to rest in and know that HE can heal your heart. Just wanted you to know that you have been in my prayers lately.

Our Miracle

"He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted." Job 9:10 "You are the God who performs miracles; You will display Your power among the peoples." Psalm 77:14 Meet our miracle...and our secret. Yes, it is true. I am pregnant; about twelve weeks and a few days to be exact. We wanted to make sure this baby was healthy before announcing how great God has been to us! We have known about this precious little blessing for a little over two months and have eagerly awaited numerous sonogram and test results. We have witnessed God's mighty, yet gentle, hand every Tuesday for the past five weeks. This baby is a fighter. However, the road is not "clear" quite yet. We met with the pareanatoligist today to do a sonogram and blood test to determine if there are any chromosomal abnormalities; specifically Downs, and Trisomy 13 and 18. Although the sonogram looked great and the doctor said we were in the "safe zone," we are stil

Don't Lose You

When Jackson was a baby, I would hop into my car on my lunch break and rush to his day care to see him. I had thirty minutes with my baby and I needed every last second. I was a mess of a new mom and had a really hard time leaving him everyday. I was caught in the conundrum of loving teaching with all that I was and loving being a mom desperately wanting to stay home. I established a neat relationship with Jack's care-takers. They were a little older than me and much wiser. They will never fully know how appreciative I am for their advice and comfort during those beginning moments as a mama. When I decided to leave my teaching career and move halfway across the country to do so, they gave me a piece of advice that I didn't take seriously initially but now hold dear. They told me I had to find something for me. They watched me finish my master's that year and knew I was the type that needed to be doing. They recognized that I was about to enter a season where I had to hold

Monday Musings~You have been called...

"For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well." Psalm 139:13-14 ...to pray. Meet our newest addition; baby Fish. I am officially 8 weeks four days pregnant! PRAISE GOD!!!! We saw our precious miracle today for the second time; heart flickering away on the monitor with little arm and leg buds beginning to form. The doctor gave us a great report telling us that everything looks perfect...can't get any better than that. God is so good to us. We are blessed beyond belief to experience the miracle of life once again. Please pray for our growing family and our precious growing angel. We feel the presence of God daily and welcome and need your prayers.
