Grace

So, lately I have felt frustrated & cranky a lot. I have no idea why, but today I felt it more. After having some frustrations with Emery, I thought to pray to God for patience and thought...oooooh...maybe not. "Please help me to not feel so frustrated & cranky," was the prayer I ended up sending up. Fast forward to Emery being asleep & me on the computer looking at blogs. Two that I don't normally check out on a regular basis led me to this & this and wow. Talk about grace. God gave me two things so fast that melted my heart, made me cry happy/relief tears, and gave me hope. So not feeling cranky now. Thanks be to God for leading me here & here! xo

He danced!





Last year this little boy plugged his ears and shook his head to music. He hated it. What a difference a year and wonderful help has made. We went to a wedding recently and he danced. Momma had some happy tears. Wow...HE DANCED! He was going TO town! I feel like screaming it to the world!

Allowing myself time


So, two months came and went again. Wow. Obvioulsy there is too much going through my mind and life right now. Instead of disapointing myself and you one more time, I am going to take a break for a while. One that is said and not just happening without communication. Allowing myself time. Time to catch up, time to think, time to heal, time to process, time to just be without expectations over my head. Hopefully soon I will be back but I wanted to be sure to communicate which is something I have not been good at for a long time. xo

Wow


WOW. How in the world did almost two months go by? Man, the holidays are crazy. But, in a good way. Hope all was great for you and yours. Ours was wonderful. Now, the new year. Wow again. 2011. I cannot keep saying that today. So weird.

So, today was a peaceful morning with Emery and I inside hanging out, playing, and cleaning up a bit. Joe took care of the yuck dog stuff outside. Around 4, we headed out to Barnes & Nobel and Target. The book store was fun as always. I love looking at journals, cards, the craft section, the art section, calendars, and bibles. So me. Emery had a great time with the trains in the kid section. He is so into trains right now having Geo-trax and Thomas-like ones. A few Thomas ones too and always looking at them. Another thing he is really into right now is mazes. Wow, the kid can do them and fast! It's amazing. I am not sure how he does it, but he just goes and goes fast right through them. We are all back home now and the boys are playing Lego Batman on the Wii. So fun.

My plan this year to is to journal as much as possible to help me to remember things more, have them more documented for scrapbooking with ease, and also to communicate better with all of you. The past year has been one of chaos and turmoil, but we are all on the up-mend now and I am looking forward to a great year of trust and growth.

Happy New Year to you and yours!
